As I mentioned yesterday, the question if baseball will happen this year was in questions: Will Major League Baseball Happen This Year. Seems as though we have answers…
…and the answer is YES YES YES…the players even have a schedule. Now the question will be will it be July 23rd or 24th?
Commissioner Rob Manfred was quick to let the world know that The Boys of Summer will be back!
“Major League Baseball is thrilled to announce that the 2020 season is on the horizon…We have provided the Players Association with a schedule to play 60 games and are excited to provide our great fans with Baseball again soon.”
From the sound of it, the players and owners came to an agreement about how to address health concerns and how a half-season will work.

If the exact date and how the post-season will be handled is the worst things we have to deal with during this pandemic-laden baseball season, we are doing WAY ok.
