Players Agree To Report By July 1
4 years agoThe Major League Baseball Players Association has agreed to report to training camps by July 1 and play a 60-game season, according to sources. However, a deal is not yet finalized, as there is one last health-and-safety hurdle to get over amid the coronavirus pandemic. USA TODAY's Bob Nightengale reports that there aren't any major snags and the union has already informed MLB that they plan to play this year. The 60-game season will start between July 24-26. Spring training 2.0 will be held at each major league club's home city for two to three weeks so players can begin ramping back up for a shortened 2020 season.
