Report: MLB to delay start of Double-A and Class-A minor league seasons

Yesterday, Kyle reported that MLB is planning to start on time this season. Though there’s still potential obstacles and negotiation to do before the season starts, there’s optimism that the season will be able to play the full set of 162 games in 2021. However, while preparing to get a full season in at the major league level, some of the lower level teams may see some delays.

J.J. Cooper of Baseball America reports that MLB has told minor-league teams at the Double-A and Class-A levels that their season will be delayed. For the Brewers, this would affect the Biloxi Shuckers (Double-A), Wisconsin Timber Rattlers (Class-A Advanced), and Carolina Mudcats (Class-A).
