I am a bit shocked baseball didn't have a plan for this when it happened. We knew it would eventually hit a team hard. MLB just seems shocked and is leaving it to individual teams to figure it out.

The NBA has handled this so much better. I know they have less players and teams, but at least you feel like they had some plans in place.

To be fair though, the biggest difference between the NBA and the NHL compared to MLB and the upcoming NFL season is that they are playing in isolated bubbles. There is no travel, and strict rules about going anywhere outside of the hotel/venues.

They can do this because the NBA and NHL already finished their regular seasons before the outbreak.

Unfortunately, MLB and the NFL can't play a whole season in a bubble. I don't see any way they possibly can. The players alone wouldn't abide by living in a bubble for a full season.
