Mikolas unplugged: Cardinals pitcher ponders what the season will look like when play resumes

JUPITER, Fla. — Thinking ahead on Wednesday March 18, Cardinals pitcher Miles Mikolas pondered what sort of schedule finally will take shape when baseball resumes play. “Will we play as many games as possible?” he said. “What’s the cutoff date? Are we going to play anything past Thanksgiving?

“If you’re looking at June 1 (for a start), then you’ve missed about two months of the season. Fifty-five games.

“You figure if the season ends Sept. 30, just throw another month on the back and there’s 30 more games right there. You take away the All-Star Game break and that’s four more games.
