MLB Rumors: Neutral Site Games Being Considered To Begin Season

Error 0:

Zack Britton, a pitcher for the New York Yankees, told MLB Network radio that the MLB and the MLBPA have discussed hosting games at “four or five” neutral sites to begin the season.

Doing this could ultimately lead the season to begin sooner. The COVID-19 outbreak is worse in different parts of the country, and teams located where it’s still worse could play neutrally. This likely includes both the Yankees and the Mets.

New York governor Andrew Cuomo reported on Thursday that over 92,000 New Yorkers have tested positive for the novel coronavirus.
