One of the biggest concerns regarding the MLB season is the imbalance of rivalry games. The Yankees and Red Sox will play ten games this season, seven of which will be played in New York. This is something that is a common thread for a lot of matchups in 2020, and will be interesting as to how teams will handle that.
