Right now I’m torn between wanting to take any and all possibility of a baseball season this year and running with it, and trying to convince myself that we won’t see baseball until an abbreviated season starts.
In
2021. When we have a vaccine that June.
I’m as
intrigued by the possibilities of whatever pseudo-season they come up and
trying not to be disappointed if and when it just doesn’t happen in any
capacity. I’d rather any baseball at this point be a pleasant surprise and not
hold onto a random date that gets tossed around and has just gotten pushed back
as of now.
That
said, there’s a rumor floating around that the season will open behind closed
doors at teams’ spring training facilities with July 1 as the target date. With
nothing else going on it might be worth considering that hypothetical.
First
off, it’s amazing that anyone is considering any sort of major thing happening
in Florida. It’s been the absolute petri dish of the virus in this country so
far and a few states over they’re opening up the beaches again. Arizona, though
I don’t think they’re taking as radical social distancing measures, doesn’t
seem to have quite the notoriety.
Either
way, it will have to be all night games so they’re not playing in 110 degree
weather. No need for getaway days, all for it. I guess next would be the
quarantine measures, so… six feet away in the clubhouse and bullpen at all
times? It’s not like we can have anyone except coaches in the dugout if that.
Wait,
the clubhouse is up that hill in right field at Camelback, correct? Can we have
all pinch runners and defensive replacements enter WWE style, to an empty
stadium? Would be the best thing in baseball since the bullpen cart.
Bring on
the belts and eight straight games against the Dodgers to start the season, I guess.
