If baseball begins in 2020, a rather necessary question will need to be asked, eventually: Is the season likely to be played to a standard conclusion? That isn't a "wish" or "hope" sort of a question. That is a question with an answer likely in the percentage range. For instance, if the season gets going, and teams commence trade discussions, what will be the likelihood of the post-season running to a conclusion with a champion? Eighty percent? Thirty percent? All in all, it would become another piece in the debate of whether a team should execute a trade or not.
