The 2020 MLB season did not begin last week as originally planned. Opening Day would have been Thursday — ideally with the A’s defeating the Twins at the Coliseum — but like most other aspects of society, it was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic. It’s impossible to know when, or even if, the baseball campaign will get started, as we wait to see what the future holds during this unprecedented episode of history.
However, amid the darkness and uncertainty of the moment, I’m pleased to inform you that there’s one thing I’m absolutely sure of regarding baseball in 2020: I will still be writing about it for Athletics Nation.
