With Opening Day a little more than two weeks away, Cincinnati Reds right-hander Trevor Bauer felt prepared for the start of the 2020 regular season.
The global coronavirus pandemic, however, indefinitely delayed the start of games and forced the league to instruct clubs to pack up spring training. At this point, there's no clear timetable for the sport's return — or any sport for that matter.
"I felt ready to go for the season," Bauer said via phone Sunday. "But I get ready a lot quicker than the vast majority of guys. For whatever reason, my body just responds well that way. Something in that range, the three-to-four week range would be absolute minimum in my mind. Who knows how it’s going to shape out though?"Players may have no choice but to revert their training regimens to mirror those of months from the start of a season rather than weeks.
There are plenty of other unknowns Bauer and the rest of the league must grapple with in the coming weeks and months when action does pick up again. There are questions about contracts and service time, incentives and payouts.
“There’s a lot of questions. I don’t know how they’re going to shake out," Bauer admitted. "They have to be discussed because they’re large parts of our industry and there’s a lot of people, not only this year and current players, but people in the next five to 10 years in the arbitration system and the free agency system when we’re talking about comparable players and whatnot that are going to be affected.
