Marlins' home game cancelled tonight b/c of COVID 19 outbreak

There has to be some algorithms that can rotate these teams through 10 parks for 60 games.

basically, they are using 15 parks a day right now. I suppose if they could get that down to 8 and play double headers at every park every day (with 4 different teams playing in the games)

Pick 8 major league cities that have the least number of active cases. Nobody gets to play at home.

Disappointing.

Seems like the season has 1 foot in the grave and the other foot on a banana peel.

It?s like the season is in the ICU with COVID-19, with no respirator in sight.

At what point do we end the insanity and stop allowing bad science to ruin entire world economies for something with a 99.8 survival rate? Freaking clown world

A little less political - screw the Marlins - cancel their season, not everybody else?s. They just forfeit all their games.

They obviously broke protocol.

Sports being back is good for the collective psyche of the country, for Ds and Rs and Is - let?s not let a few jag offs screw that up - and that goes for any team going forward.

Thanks for the Jimmy Stewart video. Anyway, its not just the Marlins the guy on Red Sox is having heart difficulties. When people are getting heart problems with Covid maybe baseball isn't important. This isn't 9-11.

Yeah, well, canceling the season for everyone else isn?t gonna help his heart any now.

I remember the year after Michigan won the NC in basketball Hank Gathers of Loyola Marymount fell over dead on the basketball court.

Nobody cancelled anything. LMU upset the Maize and Blue in the tourney without him.

I remember that too. But 1 heart could be 5 hearts by weeks end. Just saying baseballs not worth a life. The situation here is a bit different.

Anyone can opt out.

The probability of your speculation in that population is very low.
