NEW YORK — Major League Baseball issued a 60-game schedule Tuesday night that will start July 23 or 24 in empty ballparks as the sport tries to push ahead amid the coronavirus following months of acrimony.
A team is scheduled to make only one trip to each city it visits in MLB’s shortest season since 1878. Active rosters will be 30 during the first two weeks of the season, 28 during the second two weeks and 26 after that. They will not expand to 28 on Sept. 1, as originally intended this year.
Let the virus rein! If you believe you can trust health over greed, your wrong. Good luck.
