MLB issues statement on contingency plans.
Major League Baseball issued the following statement Tuesday morning:

?MLB has been actively considering numerous contingency plans that would allow play to commence once the public health situation has improved to the point that it is safe to do so. While we have discussed the idea of staging games at one location as one potential option, we have not settled on that option or developed a detailed plan. While we continue to interact regularly with governmental and public health officials, we have not sought or received approval of any plan from federal, state and local officials, or the Players Association. The health and safety of our employees, players, fans and the public at large are paramount, and we are not ready at this time to endorse any particular format for staging games in light of the rapidly changing public health situation caused by the coronavirus.?
 
I rather have them not play than come to Arizona. That's just 1200 more potential carriers. We don't need that.

THE SATURDAY SURVEY.
Totally Tigers

MLB is exploring ways to bring back live baseball sooner rather than later. The latest proposal they are kicking around involves moving all 30 teams to Arizona and playing without fans present. It would, however, allow games to be televised. On the table is also a discussion about quarantining all baseball players, management, staff and outside supporting personnel along with practicing social distancing in the dugout.

Please participate in the poll in order to share where you stand on how MLB should proceed.

What do you think of this preliminary plan?
1. Great idea.

2. Promising but needs more development.

3. Way too much effort.

4. Still too many uncontrollable issues.

5. Still too early ? continue hiatus.

6. No way.

7. Not sure.

8. Other.

Vote.
