The 2020 Major League Baseball season is hanging in the balance due to the coronavirus global pandemic, but Mike Rizzo remains optimistic.

"I'm optimistic, as is the commissioner, that we'll have baseball in 2020," the Washington Nationals general manager said. "I'm upbeat about that. The most important thing is to do it in the right way and the safest manner we can. But I believe that we will have baseball."

MLB has discussed an Arizona plan, as well as a three-state plan spread across Arizona, Texas and Florida.
