The Atlanta Braves - Hello darkness my old friend

Incredible

MLB testing lag is 2 days. So probably

Absolutely infuriating. We are the richest country in the world and MLB owners make up the top 1%. The fact we don’t have rapid testing is insane.

Aren’t the rapids batting like 50%?

Yeah it’s probably not great but somehow we’re the only country who can’t figure out sports.

It’s hard to compare us to anyone else really. We are a massive country, with multiple massive professional sporting leagues.

Canceled

Yup. That many positive tests, with how the disease works, they are gonna cancel it, maybe pay players like 10% of their salary for the year and shut it down.

Sure. But our inability to make the tough decisions have allowed this thing to fester where it wouldn’t elsewhere.

If the Marlins played after it was recommended that they shouldn’t, then they should be punished appropriately not the entire MLB

I'm wondering if the Marlins guys went 9ut like they weren't supposed to

MLB told them they could play.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

The MLB is dumb as hell for this.

lol people acting like the miami marlins just went total renegade and mlb has no input or control

What could’ve been down to prevent this? I honestly don’t know.

 

[Grudenator]

Jesus Christ. Marlins shouldn’t even be in the MLB in the first place. It’s all Derek Jeters fault!

Who knows? The problem with Covid is that in a group setting you can do everything right and still get it.

Definitely true.

One thing I have realized is too many guys in the dugout. Eduardo Perez says going forward the 10 guys playing should be in the dugout and then spread guys out through the stands. Too many teams are celebrating with each other.

I saw Trae Turner literally jump into a guys arms and bear hug after a homer yesterday. We can’t do stuff like that.

 

[GAVol]

Season is gonna get postponed isn’t it

The second that anybody tests positive and it’s a possibility that it came from the Marlins, I think we’ve got a huge problem.

 

[zjcvols]

Well.....maybe a sign that MLB isn’t looking to cancel the season

For the life of me, I don’t understand why dugouts and bullpens are even being used. Put them in the stands.

And Substitute pitchers from the bench instead of the goofy meet and greet on the mound.

And take the no celebration thing seriously.

I thought that was part of the protocol. No celebrations. I saw some guys in the stands, but i like the idea of mandating all guys in stands.
