The '''2022 Major League Baseball season''' (MLB) was originally scheduled to begin on March 31 and end on October 2. The [[2021–22 Major League Baseball lockout|2021–22 lockout]] caused the season to be delayed by one week, starting on April 7. The regular season ended on October 5. The start of the season was delayed by a lockout of players, which commenced on December 2, 2021, following the expiration of the [[Major League Baseball Collective Bargaining Agreement|collective bargaining agreement]] (CBA) between the league and the [[Major League Baseball Players Association]] (MLBPA).<ref>{{cite press release |url=https://www.mlb.com/news/featured/a-letter-to-baseball-fans |title=A letter to baseball fans |first=Robert D. |last=Manfred |publisher=MLB Advanced Media|location=New York|date=December 2, 2021 |access-date=December 2, 2021}}</ref> On March 10, 2022, MLB and the MLBPA reached a deal on a five-year CBA, with Opening Day being held on April 7 (delayed from its originally planned March 31), and a full 162-game schedule played. Under the new CBA, universal [[designated hitter]] was adopted, the postseason was expanded to 12 teams, and the regular season [[Game 163|tie-breaker]] game was eliminated. In November 2021, the Cleveland Indians announced their new team name, the [[Cleveland Guardians]].<ref>{{cite news |last=Bell |first=Mandy |date=November 19, 2021 |title=Guardians era officially arrives in Cleveland |publisher=MLB Advanced Media|location=New York|url=https://www.mlb.com/news/cleveland-guardians-era-begins |access-date=November 19, 2021}}</ref> The [[2022 Major League Baseball All-Star Game|2022 MLB All-Star Game]] was held on July 19 and hosted by the [[Los Angeles Dodgers]] at [[Dodger Stadium]] in [[Los Angeles]].<ref>{{cite news |last=Shaikin |first=Bill |date=July 3, 2020 |title=Dodgers awarded the 2022 All-Star game after this year's event is canceled |newspaper=[[Los Angeles Dodgers]]|via=[[Yahoo!

==Lockout==
{{Main|2021–22 Major League Baseball lockout}}
On December 2, 2021, MLB owners voted unanimously to enact a lockout upon the expiration of the 2016 [[collective bargaining agreement]] between the league and the [[Major League Baseball Players Association|players' union]]. Issues raised between the league and union involved compensation for young players, as well as limitations on [[Tanking (sports)|tanking]] to receive higher selections in the [[Major League Baseball draft|MLB draft]].

The 2021–22 lockout was the first MLB work stoppage since the [[1994–95 Major League Baseball strike|1994–95 strike]]. It instituted a transaction freeze, including the postponement of the major league portion of the [[Rule 5 draft]]. It would be the first year since 1920 to not have a major league phase of the Rule 5 draft, though the minor league phase will still go ahead as scheduled.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/major-league-rule-5-draft-postponed-minor-league-phase-will-still-take-place/|title=Major League Rule 5 Draft Postponed, Minor League Phase Will Still Take Place|first=Kyle|last=Glaser|magazine=[[Baseball America]]|location=[[Raleigh, North Carolina|Raleigh]]|date=December 2, 2021|access-date=December 2, 2021}}</ref>

On March 10, 2022, almost 100 days after the beginning of the lockout, MLB and the MLBPA reached a deal on a new, five-year CBA.<ref name="ESPN-2022">{{Cite news |date=March 10, 2022 |title=When do games start?

Changes in the new CBA include a pre-arbitration bonus pool for eligible young players, increased minimum salaries (increasing from $700,000 to $780,000 over the length of the deal), a draft lottery to determine the top six selections in the draft, the establishment of an international draft, and the establishment of a Joint Competition Committee that, in 2023, will oversee the adoption of future rule changes (including base sizes and pitch clocks among others). The [[National League (baseball)|National League]] began adopting the [[designated hitter]] on a permanent basis, after having previously used it on a temporary basis during the shortened [[2020 Major League Baseball season#Temporary rules for shortened 2020 season|2020 season]], while the postseason will be expanded to 12 teams.<ref name="ESPN-2022"/><ref>{{Cite news|title=MLB and MLBPA agree to new CBA pending ratification |url=https://www.mlb.com/news/mlb-mlbpa-agree-to-cba |access-date=March 10, 2022 |last=Feinsand|first=Mark|location=New York|publisher=[[MLB Advanced Media]]}}</ref>

==Rule changes==
{{Further|2022 Major League Baseball postseason}}
On March 10, Major League Baseball announced the following rule changes for the 2022 season:<ref>{{Cite news|first=Anthony|last=Castrovince|title=Everything you need to know about '22 season|url=https://www.mlb.com/news/mlb-2022-season-faq|location=New York|publisher=[[MLB Advanced Media]]|date=March 10, 2022|access-date=March 11, 2022}}</ref>
*The temporary rule for the 2020 and 2021 seasons that had [[Doubleheader (baseball)|doubleheaders]] played as seven-inning games was repealed.
*The National League adopted the [[designated hitter]] full-time. The NL previously adopted the rule temporarily in 2020 before removing it for the 2021 season.
*[[List of Major League Baseball tie-breakers|Tie-breaker games]] at the end of the season have been eliminated and replaced with statistical tiebreakers.
*The [[Major League Baseball postseason#2022–present: 12-team Wild Card Round|playoff system]] has been changed:
**Twelve teams qualify for the postseason, with the division winners seeded 1 through 3, and three wild cards seeded 4 through 6 in their respective leagues.
**The top two seeds in each league will receive a bye into the Division Series.
**The lowest-seeded division winner and three wild card teams (each seeded according to regular season record), will play a best-of-three Wild Card round, with the higher seed hosting all three games. The 3-seed will play the 6-seed, and the 4-seed will play the 5-seed.
**There is no re-seeding of the bracket. The 1-seed will play the winner of the 4-seed/5-seed series, and the 2-seed will play the winner of the 3-seed/6-seed series in the Division Series.

On March 22, MLB introduced a set of temporary rules for 2022:<ref>{{cite news |last=Baer |first=Jack |title=MLB adds Shohei Ohtani rule to universal DH |url=https://sports.yahoo.com/mlb-adds-shohei-ohtani-rule-to-universal-dh-223355459.html |access-date=March 23, 2022 |work=[[Yahoo! Sports]] |location=[[New York City|New York]]|publisher=[[Yahoo, Inc.]]|date=March 22, 2022}}</ref>
*If a team voluntarily waives the designated hitter spot so that its starting pitcher can be in the batting order, that pitcher can remain in the game as a designated hitter after being replaced by a relief pitcher. This was colloquially called the "Ohtani rule" after rare [[two-way player]] [[Shohei Ohtani]].
*The rule establishing an automatic runner<ref name="mlbglossary">{{cite web|url=https://www.mlb.com/glossary/rules/designated-runner|title=MLB Glossary: Automatic Runner|publisher=[[MLB Advanced Media]]|location=[[New York City|New York]]|date=March 31, 2022|access-date=March 31, 2022}}</ref> on second base to start each extra inning in regular season games, previously repealed on March 10, was reinstated.
*Rosters were expanded from 26 players to 28 players until May 2, due to the shortened spring training.<ref name=April26/>

On April 5, the league announced that all teams may use [[PitchCom]], a [[wireless]] system for [[catcher]]s to request pitches by type and location. PitchCom is intended to reduce the risk of [[sign stealing]] and to quicken the [[pace of play]].<ref>{{cite news |last=Castrovince |first=Anthony |title=MLB informs clubs PitchCom is approved for '22 season |url=https://www.mlb.com/news/pitchcom-approved-for-use-in-2022-regular-season |access-date=June 7, 2022 |publisher=MLB Advanced Media|location=New York |date=April 5, 2022}}</ref>

On April 26, the league announced that limiting rosters to 13 pitchers had been delayed until May 30, allowing teams to carry up to 14 pitchers until then.<ref name=April26>{{cite news |url=https://www.overthemonster.com/2022/4/27/23044334/mlb-roster-limit-may-1-pitchers-13-14-boston-red-sox-travis-shaw-jonathan-arauz |title=MLB and Players Association agree to push back deadline for 13-pitcher limit |first=Matt |last=Collins |publisher=[[Vox Media]]|location=[[Boston]]|work=[[SB Nation]]|date=April 27, 2022 |access-date=April 27, 2022}}</ref> The 13-pitcher limit was later delayed again, becoming effective June 20.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.bostonglobe.com/2022/06/19/sports/red-sox-facing-some-decisions-getting-roster-down-13-pitchers/ |title=Red Sox facing some decisions in getting roster down to 13 pitchers |first=Peter |last=Abraham |newspaper=[[The Boston Globe]]|location=[[Boston]] |url-access=limited |date=June 19, 2022 |access-date=June 19, 2022}}</ref>

== Spring training ==
[[Spring training]] for the 2022 season began later than usual due to the lockout, beginning in mid March and lasted into early April. Teams began workouts and practice for spring training beginning in late February. Pitchers and catchers reported first, followed by position players a few days later.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-03-10 |title=MLB 2022: Here’s All You Need to Know About Spring Training, Opening Day |url=https://www.nbcconnecticut.com/news/sports/mlb-2022-heres-all-you-need-to-know-about-spring-training-opening-day/2738052/ |access-date=2024-02-26 |website=NBC Connecticut |language=en-US}}</ref>

Prior to the start of the regular season, each team played between 14 and 22 spring training games, beginning on March 17. Games were initially supposed to begin on February 27. There were several times during spring training where a team had two different squads playing different teams simultaneously. Due to the lockout, the usually occasional exhibition games with non-MLB teams, such as [[Minor League Baseball]] teams, [[Independent baseball league|independent]] teams, or [[College baseball|college]] teams did not occur. Spring training ended on April 6, the day before the Opening Day.

The 2022 season marked the first season of multiple broadcasting deals in Major League Baseball in the United States, most of which run through the 2028 season:

*[[Major League Baseball on Fox|Fox]] remains the league's main broadcaster, carrying a package of regular season games on the main [[Fox Broadcasting Company|Fox broadcast network]] and [[Fox Sports 1|FS1]], and Spanish-language broadcasts on [[Fox Deportes]].

*[[ESPN Major League Baseball|ESPN]] networks carry 30 exclusive games per season, including 25 ''[[Sunday Night Baseball]]'' games, as well as an Opening Day primetime game, the [[Home Run Derby]], and Spanish-language broadcasts on [[ESPN Deportes]]. ESPN dropped most of its weeknight game packages under its new contract, with only five non-Sunday games scheduled (most of which air as [[Wednesday Night Baseball]]). ESPN has the option to carry selected games on [[ESPN on ABC|ABC]] and stream all of its games on [[ESPN+]] (which, as before, carries a daily game from MLB.tv at no additional charge).
