Report: 2020 minor-league season to be canceled

Error 0:

Joe Doyle of SB Nation has reported that agents have been notified that there will not be a 2020 minor-league baseball season.

Major League rosters will be expanded for the condensed season, and that there will be a developmental league based at spring training sites for minor leaguers. It’s unclear whether the developmental league will include all minor-leaguers or only those at higher levels of ball.

It’s not clear at this time about how minor-leaguers will be paid, nor how the developmental league will work.

Right now, the MLB is finalizing a plan to resume spring training in a few weeks for a late June return.
