Start of Regular Season Could Be Delayed Longer than Expected

Not much news emerged out of Camelback Ranch on Friday, but one bit of information that surfaced was something we began to fear on Thursday evening—the start of the regular season will likely run past the delay that the MLB front office initially anticipated.

The Major League Baseball Players Union was busy early Friday making sure everything was copacetic as far as the rights and welfare of the players go.

Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic tweeted a list late Friday afternoon highlighting several of the outcomes from today’s discussions.

If you missed Andy’s column on Thursday, she outlined how the MLB cancelled the remainder of its Spring Training games, while also announcing that the start of the 2020 regular season will be delayed by at least two weeks due to the repercussions of the coronavirus pandemic.
