20 thoughts about the 2020 team

The 2020 season was a weird beast. There’s the fact that the Cardinals only played 58 games, a sample of games that is a little over a third of a normal season. Any team can be good for 58 teams and any team can be bad for 58 games. There’s a reason 162 games are played. Then there’s the fact that those 58 games were interrupted by a COVID outbreak, causing the Cardinals to not play baseball at all for 17 days in the middle of the season, and then play a condensed, insane schedule in about a month and a half to make up for that.
