You’ve probably got other things on your mind, but in the event no baseball is played in 2020, I was wondering what, if anything, might happen with regards to the automatic salary increases.

Real-world teams are already facing these similar salary management questions as MLB has said 2020 will count towards service time & contracts, potentially without having any 2020 performances taking place.

I assume unless otherwise posted, Ottoneu’s rules for the next offseason will remain as is. But clarification on that assumption would be helpful.

Edit: Thanks Niv, didn’t see this thread for some reason.
