Even though the coronavirus continues to wreak havoc on the United States, Major League Baseball still plans to start their 2020 regular season on July 23 and/or 24. Last week, the Pittsburgh Pirates, along with the rest of baseball, began training for the season at their home ballparks. Fingers are crossed, and people remain cautiously optimistic that baseball will be played this summer.
As we forge forward into the unknown, although, hopefully, it will be an unknown that includes baseball, predictions can start to be made about the 2020 season. Well, at least the best predictions that can be made for a 60-game season during a global virus pandemic.
