They might have to shut baseball down.

[woodchuck]

12 members of the Miami Marlins have tested positive. They played Philadelphia yesterday, and the Yankees are the next team to play Philadelphia. You think they want to go into that visitor's locker room that the Marlins were just in? By the way, the Marlins played the Washington Nationals in an exhibition game, and the Nationals played the Braves in an exhibition game. See where this is going?

 

[REDLINE]

Damn

 

[GuessWho21212]

This country needs to cut off Florida like a septic limb. Call in Bugs Bunny and get it over with.

 

[michigantoga]

National shutdown for 30 days, then evaluate.

 

[850credit]

Money over everything

I was just about to post this. How long is baseball going to last?

Should have happened in the very beginning.

Just saw this on SC. Baseball is done for the season. Grand Opening, Grand Closing.

Yep. They couldn't even make it past the first week before an outbreak occurred.
And this will have a ripple effect to college football and the NFL.
They too think they can play on, business as usual.
Imagine this but on a larger scale with a football team.
Sports (not played in a bubble) is done for this year.

I don’t think it’s all about money; I think it’s about getting back to normalcy too. How long should people avoid this?

Yep. Shutdown for the entire U.S., except the NBA. Bron still gotta win this chip this year.

People don't seem to understand that.

This country is not shutting down, people don't even want to wear mask.

For now....

 

[crossovernegro]

but if there wasn't a ton of tv money at stake, the push to have a season wouldn't be as strong though.

Yep, this is all about the money.
If the sports leagues shut down, then the TV networks will rightfully ask for their money back.
The sports leagues get most of their money from the TV networks.
If that happens, then the players don't get paid (if at all).
There's a domino effect to everything.

I watched part of a game and there are still interactions when a player or players cannot wear a mask.
Home plate, person on base..coming in and out of the dugout...etc

Baseball was more concerned about coming to agreement with the players association

They probably should have done a bubble in the spring training locations

And this surprises you why? I have said at least a dozen times and made a thread that sports are done until there's a viable vaccine..... but the desire for $$$$ and overall stupidity pushes on

And again, you're wrong

Everything from golf, tennis to soccer are back

It has nothing to do with stupidity...it has to do with what if there is no vaccine....what if it takes three or four years

You're going to stay in your house for four years?

 

[CoTtOnMoUf]

no great loss.

Actually, it was the players who refused to be in a bubble for a whole season, which is only 60 games this season.
The demographics in MLB are a lot different than the NBA.
MLB is mostly white boys who refuse to wear masks and still think this whole thing is a hoax.
