Mariners are playing their first two home series not in Seattle.

Didn’t see where. Peoria?

Love that Jomboy is doing this right now. It's become an evening routine for me. Especially hilarious how he keeps breaking out the calculator and bitching about broadcasts making him do the math.

That's a cute plan, he's not getting it.

At this point, it will almost be a miracle if they play at all.

I don’t see shelter in place guidelines relaxed until June at the minimum. And if that happened and MLB says they were starting, let’s say June 14th, is anyone going to show up out of fear that the virus could still spread from large gatherings, even if scientists show data that curve is trending downward?

Baseball possibly returning sooner than you'd think.

Playing in relatively unknown stadiums and with expanded rosters sure would make fantasy baseball fun!

"Just kicking the tires" idea being considered:

According to Bob Nightengale of USA Today, the proposal would see half of MLB's 30 teams split into three divisions in Florida's Grapefruit League and the other 15 teams split into three divisions in Arizona's Cactus League.

MLB is searching for answers during the coronavirus pandemic, and one way to possibly play a shortened season would be to have teams play all their games at spring training sites in Florida and Arizona with no fans in attendance.

Nightengale provided a breakdown of what the leagues and divisions would look like:

GRAPEFRUIT LEAGUE

•NORTH: New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, Toronto Blue Jays, Detroit Tigers, Pittsburgh Pirates
•SOUTH: Boston Red Sox, Minnesota Twins, Atlanta Braves, Tampa Bay Rays, Baltimore Orioles
•EAST: Washington Nationals, Houston Astros, New York Mets, St. Louis Cardinals, Miami Marlins

CACTUS LEAGUE
•NORTHEAST: Chicago Cubs, San Francisco Giants, Arizona Diamondbacks, Colorado Rockies, Oakland Athletics
•WEST: Los Angeles Dodgers, Chicago White Sox, Cincinnati Reds, Cleveland Indians, Los Angeles Angels
•NORTHWEST: Milwaukee Brewers, San Diego Padres, Seattle Mariners, Texas Rangers, Kansas City Royals

Per Nightengale, the designated hitter would likely be used in both leagues, and there would be at least one doubleheader played every night.

Also, 26 different ballparks would be available to MLB, including the Tampa Bay Rays' Tropicana Field, the Miami Marlins' Marlins Park and the Arizona Diamondbacks' Chase Field.
