Games played on Christmas, minor-league doubleheaders of seven innings apiece, dogs and cats living together. The 2020 MLB season could be mass hysteria. If, that is, there’s a season at all. The league and players have reached an agreement and remain hopeful for a schedule of 140 games or more, though that seems like a pipe dream at best given current trends.
Regardless of how many games are eventually played, the regular season will push well into October and could force a neutral-site World Series around Thanksgiving or, as at least one proposal holds, late December.
