Until at least May, allegedly. Crap.

“I don’t see any way spring training starts in February,” an American League owner said. “Zero chance of that. I don’t care if we play 140 games, 120 games or 80 games, we have to make sure everyone is safe to do this right.”

And if the owners have to prorate the player salaries again, I'm guessing they'll be crying no tears. In fact, it sounds like that's exactly what they want.

Owners want no part of baseball with no fans

can’t blame them
