If the COVID-19 pandemic is going to lead to radical changes to the 2020 baseball season, the White Sox and Cubs might as well play in the same league.
Heck, put them in the same division.
It’s possible. A new plan reportedly being discussed by Major League Baseball includes radical, but temporary, realignment that would allow all 30 teams to use their spring training facilities as the regular season gets split up between Arizona and Florida. According to USA Today’s Bob Nightengale, one proposal has the divisions looking like this:
Grapefruit League (Florida)
NORTH: New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, Toronto Blue Jays, Detroit Tigers, Pittsburgh Pirates.
