The official MLB schedule was first discussed in a live show on MLB Network at 5:00 central time. During that show the order and number of games for certain teams was released for certain teams, but not the dates and times. The show also discussed certain scheduling quirks.

In this article, I will discuss the schedule and offer some analysis, as well as give some updates around the league.
