Sara’s Diary: Day 103 without baseball: Play ball?

Yesterday after months of back and forth that some have characterized as negotiating the MLBPA rejected the owners offer for a 2020 season by a vote of 33-5.

That led MLB to unilaterally set a 60-game season with players reporting by July 1. The season is subject to the MLBPA accepting the start date and the health and safety protocols set out by MLB.

As the news broke on Twitter I let out a long sigh. Some might have mistaken that sigh for relief, but honestly it was exhaustion. Am I glad there will (likely) be baseball in 2020?
