While some of you may have thought the owners and players were never going to be able to settle their differences, cooler heads prevailed (or maybe fiscally-minded ones) and the Cubs will finally get ready to start an abbreviated 60-game schedule in 2020. Well, that is if COVID-19 allows it.

Not just any lineup either, as he will have the added benefit and decision of selecting one more player to DH every game now that the designated hitter will be in play for both the National and American Leagues this season.
