St. Louis Cardinals sidelined with COVID
More postponements.

Are they even going to be able to finish this season?

I honestly don't know. We have three games postponed tonight now due to COVID.
And that doesn't even include that St. Louis just came from Minnesota, and the Twins are now in Cleveland. Probably going to have to keep an eye on the Twins and Indians now. |

If MLB's plan was "shut down any team that has a positive" than they shouldn't have even started the season back up. Players were getting this during lock-downs. Players were getting this before the season opened. Players are GOING to get this because MLB didn't attempt to isolate them outside of the ballparks. Players getting COVID was inevitable and if they simply planned on locking down any team that had a positive test, they shouldn't have bothered. And that goes for every single one of these major sports. Accept occasional cases as an inevitability or don't bother. This is ridiculous. |
Wonder how many tested positive. Been a handful of teams have 1 or 2 guys have to sit out for symptoms/positive tests but didn't have to postpone their games. Have to imagine a decent number tested positive here.
This season is just a disaster. Half the league going to be looking at doing 2 weeks worth of those 7 inning double headers if they want to actually finish the season at this rate. |
