On Tuesday night, the MLBPA and league announced they agreed to a deal for the 2020 season. As part of MLB's official announcement, the league added they had also agreed to health and safety protocols.

Players have agreed to report to training camps by July 1 and MLB announced that opening day, July 23 or 24, will mark the start of the 60-game season. The season is expected to end by September 27.

The proposed schedule will largely feature divisional play, with the remaining portion of a team's games coming against their opposite league's corresponding geographical division.

Blackmon has made the NL All-Star team in each of the past three seasons. He additionally won the NL batting title in 2017.
