Baseball is Back! - Maybe

Following the Major league baseball players’ association’s rejection of the MLB owners’ last proposal for a 60 game schedule, Commissioner Rob Manfred will unilaterally implement a schedule pursuant to the March 27 agreement between the parties. Manfred will reportedly set a schedule for..... 60 games.

There will be no expanded playoffs, just the normal five teams in each league in the post season. There will be a universal designated hitter in 2020, but not necessarily in 2021.

There will be no advertising patches on uniforms. Players don’t have to get mic’ed up for television, and that stupid rule about starting extra innings with a runner on second base is not in the plans- for now.
