Hi MCUfanDan. I happened to be finally writing a reply to your Season 1 canon question just hours before you messaged, so check that, I've replied to that for you as well.

The Punisher: Season 2 takes place in May 2018, other than the epilogue scene which is August 2018. However, where that is relative to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: 5,14-5,22, Ant-Man and the Wasp, and Avengers: Infinity War is up in the air, because that chunk of the timeline's placement is undefined, somewhere between March and June 2018. I don't have the time to explain it all again (and, nothing to do with you not your fault, but I've explained it to people so many times I just can't bring myself to do it again) but if you look at the references on the 2018 page, here's the link for the reference that covers most of it.

If we're to abide by Jeph Loeb's comment that all MCU TV released before April 26, 2019 is set before Infinity War, then its May placement should place the whole season between Split Up in January 2018 and The Devil Complex which would probably be pushed to June 2018, with just the epilogue after Infinity War in August (whenever Infinity War takes place, that epilogue is after - it's either in a post-Snap world, not impossible, or post-Endgame assuming the Snap gets undone). If the Infinity War chunk is earlier, around March, then the whole season is the latest point in the timeline, assuming Endgame makes it so that the Snap never happened.

But we can't know that yet obviously, so we can't really make the decision, as discussed in the reference. Plus there'll most likely be more evidence still to come in Endgame and Far from Home for Infinity War ' s placement. So at the moment, all we can say for certain is The Punisher: Season 2 (except the epilogue) is May 2018, and Infinity War and the surrounding Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episodes and Ant-Man and the Wasp are between March and June 2018. It's sort of up to you.

Sorry I can't give you a definitive answer, but there's not much we can do about it yet.
