i find baseball boring but a shortened season where every game could be meaningful may be worth to watch

No it isn't. Give it 10 days and we'll see if opening day is still the 23rd.

I'm a sports fanatic, but i'm coming to terms with the very likely fact that we won't see sports in 2020.

They just announced the schedules for all the teams.

MLB is on track to play at this point. If they weren't going to play they would have cancelled the season already.

They'll probably play for a month then stop when a team gets a significant number of cases where they can't field a team lol

I have doubts it will happen. But they kind of screwed themselves regardless of it happens or not. Because even during the summer when the NBA and Stanley Cup Finals are over, many people are counting down til football. Now they're going to be competing with the other sports. And spoiler alert, theyre not going to win the views. They had their chance and blew it.

not interested in a donkey ass free for all season. 60 games proves nothing, baseball is a marathon, this is a sprint. 162 games proves beyond a shadow of a doubt who the best team is. in a 162 game season the elite teams will wear down mediocre teams, in this ebola season mediocre teams could end up playing spoiler and that to me aint right. idk how any serious baseball fan could possibly enjoy a 60 game season, under the circumstances i understand its better than nothing but it doesnt mean i have to like it.

if you just wanna watch some baseball then you cant go wrong, youre easy to please, but if you wanna watch to see who the best team is (like we normally do) this aint the season. not to mention even the best players get into a rut and see major slumps, in a 60 game season there is no room for error youre not allowed to have a slump that could be your season.
The teams that were going to make the playoffs in a regular season are likely going to be the same teams that make the playoffs now. Especially with how important depth is going to be in a season where players are opting out or are sick. Of course there are no guarantees, but I think any bad luck will have more to do with the virus than the shortened schedule.

I disagree with you for the most part anyway. I think this season is just as valid as any other, even if it's not being played under ideal circumstances. Don't watch if you're not interested, but most fans are, and they will enjoy having a baseball game to look forward to every night. As long as the virus doesn't ruin it of course.

yea I will watch it. many think this may be the last season of the MLB. people believe there won't be a 2021 season. and we may go years before a new League gets invented

it sucks. The Mariners are the only team in the entire league that never got to make an appearance at a World Series and unless they suddenly do it now, they never will

The 2021 season isn't the one in jeopardy; it's the 2022 season because the CBA runs out after the 2021 season. Most writers believe that the owners really soured the players and that there'll be a nasty bargaining period that could lead to a strike/lock-out.

It makes sense because most owners are extremely short-sighted and have only been looking at how to make money this year and not how to keep goodwill up and be able to make more money in later years.
