    Will we get a MLB season?

    I am doubtful.

    Sadly, no. The minor league has already been canceled, at least the Indianapolis Indians. People are being arrested for not wearing cloth masks. Relatives of victims have to have their temperatures taken twice a day at work. Fear has produced another lockdown.

    No baseball....wait until next year....

    I agree. And am sad. I hated a short season but as it started was enjoying it.

    Yes. The season started a week ago. The country is not going back into lockdown. I have doubts that the United States would survive if it did. There are a huge amount of problems with drugs and alcohol and health issues and mental and emotional issues not being reported by the news media that may be doing way more damage to the populace than the virus is. Going back into lockdown would make these problems even worse than they already are.

    If MLB loses all that TV money they normally get from the playoffs, then there may not be an MLB to wait until next year for.

    I kinda like a shorter season (not like me). But I worry about the integrity of the season.

    That said, I'll always watch baseball even if it is just a few games.

    Given their reaction to the previous win, it may be unwise to wait until this one before stocking up.

    They have yet to impeach him for COVID-19, but once he wins, there is no reason to think they won’t.
