Posted in: Seven-inning doubleheaders in shortened

Two weeks have pa sed since Major League Baseball shut down operations in response to the spread of the novel coronavirus. Coincidentally, the two-week mark falls on Thursday, March 26, or what was supposed to be Opening Day 2020. It's unclear when (or if) the 2020 season will begin, though the optimistic timeline expre sed by commi sioner Rob Manfred .If there is a 2020 Denver Nuggets Jeresy season, it will look different than the standard variety. That will likely entail a shorter season, one featuring a lot of doubleheaders and a later conclusion than normal. Even the length of the games appear subject to change, with R.J. Hampton Jersey some in the game wondering if should adopt the seven-inning doubleheader standard prevalent in the minors and college.Commi sioner Rob Manfred said that "nothing is off the table" for the 2020 season . That includes doubleheaders and, perhaps, even tweaking the length of games. He isn't the only one thinking about those po sibilities. general manager Ro s Atkins, himself a former minor-league Alex English Jersey pitcher, acknowledged that the league might look into the seven-inning doubleheader structure, but was quick to highlight the drawbacks that come with it. "You're not playing the game that is written in the rulebooks," he said, . "It's not the regulation game; it's Bol Bol Jersey a different game. Bullpens and teams are built in a way to play nine innings. I'm sure there are people that would challenge that, and I'm not so sure it's something we should do."Atkins pointed out that changing the length of the game would impact the record books, as well as the compensation system. The arbitration proce s, for example, is built on precedent. Given the atypical nature of the 2020 season (if there is one), further tweaks might cause greater complications on that front. Nonethele s, manager Aaron Boone seemed to sum up things during a conference call when he said this season will be "an opportunity to try some things that you wouldn't otherwise Carmelo Anthony Jersey try in a normal 162-game setting where everything is going off according to plan."
