SPECULATOR: 2020 Mulligans

Earlier this year, we gave out some free passes for those who had a bad day at the office. Now we're taking our forgiving mood even further with an annual exercise of handing out mulligans to those who, frankly, stunk up the joint for most of 2020.

They are playing in the middle of a pandemic, after all. Tack on the empty stadiums, limited Summer Camp ramp-up, and frequent reminders of mask-wearing and social distancing, and it's easy to see how some might struggle more than others. (And by the way, KUDOS to the players and their families for making it this far through the season. Consider yours truly as extremely skeptical we'd get here after baseball's rocky start).

You’ll need a short memory if you rostered these guys in 2020, but...

Almost!
