Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred is increasingly confident big league players will participate in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. MLB did not allow players on 40-man rosters at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. MLB has discussed creating an extended All-Star break to allow participation in the 2028 Games. An agreement with the players’ association is necessary, and sponsor deals could be impacted. Manfred says logistical issues still need to be worked on. Participation in 2028 is likely to be a one-off, as the 2032 Olympics are scheduled for Brisbane, Australia.
