Report: MLB Draft May Be Cancelled, Along With Postponement Of 2020-21 International Signing Period Amid Coronavirus Pandemic

As the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic sweeps the nation, most of the major professional sports leagues have been forced to temporarily suspend operations for the time being.

Major League Baseball cancelled all remaining Spring Training games and pushed back the start of the regular season. With play unlikely to resume until the middle of May, at the earliest, some are beginning to speculate what that could mean for a few of the sport’s yearly events.

As of now, the National Baseball Hall of Fame ceremony/weekend is still slated to take place on July 24-27. However, the Classic Weekend events scheduled for May 22-24 were cancelled.
