Last week, the commissioner’s office announced that Major League Baseball’s remaining spring training games were cancelled and the regular season would be delayed “at least” two weeks.
“At least” is turning into quite a bit more than that, according to this USA Today article:
There’s a real possibility the Major League Baseball season could be delayed until Memorial Day weekend – or even longer – two MLB executives told USA TODAY Sports.
The executives spoke on the condition of anonymity since they weren’t authorized to speak publicly on the discussions.
No one knows when MLB will be able to begin its 2020 season, but certainly, playing a 162-game schedule starting on April 9 is completely unrealistic.
