We've all seen how the MLB season has struggled thus far with players breaking rules, going out and getting sick, which has led a ton of games getting canceled. Meanwhile the NBA and NHL have been thriving in their bubbles. So, the MLB might be creating a bubble situation for the playoffs...
quote:
they've had "preliminary discussions" about implementing the same system for the playoffs following a series of outbreaks with at least 2 MLB teams.
The league would need 3 cities to accommodate the 16-team playoff format, according to Jeff Passan.
Passan says Southern California, Chicago and NYC would make the most sense for hub cities because of issues like weather, stadium availability and lodging.
No official decision has been made yet -- but playoffs are set to begin on Sept. 27 ... so clock's ticking!
