MLB rumors: League, MLBPA working on plan to start 2020 season in May

If you're going through withdrawals without baseball, there might be some good news for you.

ESPN's Jeff Passan reported Monday, citing sources, that MLB and the players' association are working on a plan that would eventually lead to the 2020 season starting sometime in May, with all games being played in the Phoenix, Arizona area.

No specific date in May was given, but Passan reported that the plan being worked on has the approval of "high-ranking federal public health officials."

The start of the 2020 season was delayed March 12 due to the global coronavirus pandemic.
