There's discussion of starting the season i florida and arizona. The players would be quarantined and they would play in empty spring training facilities.

At this point I’d take it.

But in another month FLA will be in pretty awful shape, I’m guessing.

Major league sports owners getting kicked in the teeth would be a nice side effect of this mess.

I believe that the plan is that the players would be in a controlled environment where only essential people involved having access and they stay in controlled hotels not being able to leave the bubble of the ST facilities and hotels.

I think it's going to be suspended indefinitely.

[AWvsCBsteeeerike3]

I don't see how they do it.

It would take a completely enclosed system that would include housing, facilities, food, and a dedicated team.

That team would have to include the players, umps, coaches, and team personnel.
On top of that (and the food/rooming people)
there would be families that would essentially be asked at the beginning to be in (and never leave) or out (and never visit). In short, no way any player agrees to that.

Some historical perspective.
