Ha! Brilliant minds. How are you doing D? Can you believe I am in Boston now?
I'm hunkered down trying to get work done from home. I hope you get an opportunity to see a game at Fenway this season (perhaps the MLB season will start before the Mariners' scheduled series in Boston at the end of June). Be well.

I had tickets to the Mariners' season opener today. I had plans to then head up to Bellingham to see my younger daughter and her UC San Diego rowing teammates compete against Western Washington on Friday and Saturday. We had to cancel everything.

Not the biggest source of revenue but attendance revenue isn't insignificant either........

If necessary, and the great hope is this won’t be necessary, but it’s possible games could be played without fans. If that unhappy possibility becomes reality, MLB/players would discuss how to account for decreased revenue. About one-third of revenue comes from attendance.

Best-case would be late May start. Hope is still for about 140 games. Regular season would go into mid October. Changes to add games would include doubieheaders, fewer off days and expanded rosters.
