Tuesday Bird Droppings: Where there might not be baseball in 2020 after all

Good morning, Camden Chatters.

I hope you enjoyed last week’s draft, because it may turn out to be the only MLB-related event in 2020.

Manfred told ESPN yesterday that he’s “not confident” there will be an MLB season this year, contradicting his statements from just last week that the chances of a season were “100 percent” and that “unequivocally we are going to play Major League Baseball this year.”

Sigh. Just when you think MLB couldn’t possibly get any more incompetent, here we are.

Over the weekend, the MLBPA decided to end negotiations with MLB after the owners’ repeated refusal to pay players their full prorated salaries.
