MLB Has Considered Possibility Of 50-Game Season 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Jun 2, 2020 12:48 pm

Major League Baseball doesn\'t yet intend to propose this to the players, but the league has considered the possibility of implementing a schedule of around 50 games that would start in July, according to sources.

The plan is considered a last resort if the two sides can\'t come to a deal soon.

I struggle with the idea of an 80-90 game season.
50? No thanks. Just call it something else and not a typical baseball season. No World Series. Just USA cup type of tourney and move on.

I might start watching baseball again if they shortened the season. Imagine every game meaning 3 times as much as before! Awesome.
