It appears that there is going to be a baseball season after all, one of 60 games, following a month of ugly public negotiations between the players and owners over how to navigate through the money of the shortened season. In the words of Reds pitcher Trevor Bauer, "COVID-19 already presented a lose-lose-lose situation and we've somehow found a way to make it worse."
Anyway, we can at least briefly turn our attention once again to the upcoming season and pretend we're back in the middle of March, talking about baseball and baseball players and the wonder and joy of the best sport on the planet.
