Will there be a 2020 Major League Baseball season? Commissioner Rob Manfred is doing everything in his power to try and make that happen, although it obviously will be much shorter than 162 games. One interesting report last week was that MLB could abandon the traditional American and National League split and instead have a Grapefruit and Cactus League. Divisions would then be split up by proximity of spring camps in Florida and Arizona.

That seems far-fetched (but interesting) and for now we will assume that the AL and NL will stick with their usual divisions.

In the AL East, the New York Yankees are the biggest division favorites in the Junior Circuit at -450 despite some starting pitching concerns even with the addition of Gerrit Cole. Keep in mind that last year’s pitcher with the most wins on the team was Domingo German with 18, and he still has to serve 63 games of a suspension for an off-field incident from 2019. There may not even be 63 games this year.
