@Joelsherman1: You see the wildfire that is COVID here. #STLCards have a positive form a test that was almost certainly taken in MInnesota. Cards were off yesterday, but #Twins played #Indians. What will this mean for their games?

It would have been too hard to follow 3 sports at once anyway...

The World Series will end up being between the two teams that didn't get Corona, regardless of league.

Another Marlin player tests positive at the Rittenhouse. Wonder if these count in our COVID stats

3 games series appear to be one of the clear mistakes.

MLB says Cards and Brewers will play Saturday and Sunday, with a double header Sunday .....I guess they didn’t learn anything from the past week

It's the Cards, so of course they're going to play. They are the chosen ones.

Give them another competitive balance pick for every positive test.

BREAKING: MLB commissioner Rob Manfred told MLBPA executive director Tony Clark on Friday that if the sport doesn’t do a better job of managing the coronavirus, it could shut down for the season, sources tell ESPN.

#MLB internal investigation found the #Marlins were very lapse in following protocols during Atlanta trip last weekend, players going out, players in hotel bar, etc. Lots of MLB people very unhappy with Miami




Maybe they should do something about it.

I like how he's setting it up to blame the MLBPA because his plan was hot garbage.
