Some further thoughts about fans in the stands in Wrigley and other ballparks in 2020

It didn’t take too long after MLB announced its “imposed” 2020 season for some teams to start hinting they might want fans in the stands this year.

The Cubs were one of those teams, as I noted here Thursday, quoting Cubs President of Business Operations Crane Kenney:

[Kenney] expects the rooftops overlooking Wrigley Field to be open for the Cubs home opener. The rooftops will still have to abide by city regulations, which will likely limit the number of fans and promote social distancing.

“Even now with the mayor’s phasing of the city’s reopening, we would be allowed to open the rooftops,” Kenney said.
