The way this year is going the Cardinals could throw in the towel today and 2020 would throw it back.

Evan Drellich of The Athletic reports that the start of the 2021 spring training and season for MILB players could be staggered.

This, of course, will depend on the COVID-19 pandemic -- particularly if there's a vaccination. If there's not, Drellich reports that the Triple-A players could report to the Grapefruit and Cactus League to begin the season, with lower-level players entering at a later time -- perhaps after the actual spring training year finishes, Drellich suggests at the end of March -- as they won't be considered potential replacements. There's still question marks on how many teams will even exist for the minor league season, but it does make sense to have a staggered approach for young players to keep them isolated.
