Local news in Fort Myers is reporting that the MLB and players have reached an agreement and there will be a season beginning in July.  No details at this time.

Do the Cubs actually have to play the games now, or can they go directly to the playoffs?

Nice article on South Bend and how the facilities there might be utilized.

The Cubs are planning on having a limited number of fans in the stands not long after the season starts, and planning on having fans on the rooftops at the start of the season.

Amazing how several teams suddenly think they can have a limited number of fans now that the agreement to start the season is done. A week ago, they were using the fact that they'd be without fans all year as leverage in their negotiations.

I'm shocked to learn that the owners were being dishonest again.

Foul balls could be interesting.  Would fans not be allowed to go after one that ended up in the section where the extra players were seated?

Are the netting extensions down to the foul poles in place?
