I am a Miami Marlins fans, a rare breed, and this is the first year in as many years as I can remember that I wasn't in the stands on opening day. Nevertheless, I was all set to have my own version of opening day in front of the TV with hot dogs and hamburgers on the BBQ grill. What a disappointment when 1/3 the team tested positive and the game was cancelled. I spend a lot of time in SW Florida and it was not surprising the Marlins got hit first given how rampant the virus is there.
But this will not be the first outbreak and if MLB gets hit with major outbreaks on 3-4 teams at once, I think the season is over. It has never been clear they were doing enough to contain the spread. I even see some players sitting in the dugouts without masks. If they can't control simple "on-the-field" requirements, how can they possibly control what these athletes do off the field?
The MLB season is in real trouble.
