12 marlins and 2 of their coaches have tested positive. Football was fun to dream about
I wouldn't be surprised to see them just can the MLB season at this point.
We needed MLB to successfully get through this in order for football to happen, but it ain't looking good.
Was there a thought that no one would test positive? Because that would be stupid.
NFL have structured their roster limitations, IR provisions, practice squad rules, etc around the knowledge that there will be positive tests.
I can't believe any league would go into this thinking there wouldn't be positives. I'm not waving the white flag on football just yet.
I think they knew there would be positives. But this is a flat out outbreak after only 3 games. I'm sure the Phillies players are worried since they just played the Marlins.
30 man roster, 12 positives = 40% of team
I doubt mlb lasts a week
I don't know why more people didn't say this. Why are we playing games at home stadiums with no fans? Keep everyone in their spring training bubble and you would have very few issues. Travel isn't nearly as bad either.
Didn't make sense to me that this wasn't an option discussed more for MLB.
Probably not a league canceler. The Nationals kept playing after Soto tested positive. This was bound to happen, and surely will many more times. The key is constantly testing everyone and locking up any positives.
The Marlins are basically a AAA quality team anyway, so call up 12 replacements, test everyone, and keep going.
They should definitely get rid of locker rooms. And I wouldn't blame any player who opts out.
I'm just saying that MLB new something like this would likely happen and started the season anyway, so they can't get spooked now. Just roll with it and constantly test everyone.
