The Boston Red Sox still haven’t returned to playing baseball but we did get an important update that effects the team’s future on what would have been Opening Day.
According to ESPN’s Jeff Passan, Major League Baseball reached an agreement with the MLB Players Association Thursday night, resolving a wide-ranging series of issues created by the coronavirus pandemic that has delayed the 2020 season indefinitely.
The report makes it clear that both sides are intent on playing as many games as possible this year. The details of how that will be feasible still need to be hashed out but MLB is eyeing mid-May as a target to restart training camp with the season opening sometime in June.
