If there's a big lesson to be learned, its that non-bubble sports need as much extra time worked into the schedule as possible.

Is it possible to just shutdown the Cardinals for the year and let the rest of MLB play things out?

FYP

Heres how you handle players who violate protocol. Send them
home in a car.

Indians pitcher Zach Plesac sent home to Cleveland after going out with friends in Chicago on Saturday night in violation of team rules and league’s health and safety protocols. With @ZackMeisel: https://t.co/46ov4QqfaV

What an absolute abomination. Mlb is a fucking joke the way they've handled this season. Plenty of time to prepare and this is the pathetic execution?
[Reply]

It is not the MLB. It is the players. The MLB have put policies and procedures in place and the players are not following them. That is the wildcard with the NFL. If the players don't follow protocols it could be just as bad or worse.

:-) They had no plan for it though. We knew this would happen

I don’t think the NFL players will be any better at following the protocols. Why would they? They are in top physical shape. Young and feel invincible. They will want to go out with some buddies and party a little just like the Indians pitcher. They can’t help it as a group. Someone will break protocol. 53 players and another 64 staff who travel with the team. That’s a lot of chances for one dumbass to screw it up for everyone.

The NBA and NHL players have no choice, they are in a bubble. That’s the way to ensure players follow the protocols.

Apparently they had another player test positive today. That's not good. Especially since they were practicing this week. Hopefully this is it and doesn't keep dragging into the next week.

John Mozeliak says one player tested positive today. OF Lane Thomas

The whole team was in an airplane after exposure to the virus. Masks were optional on the flight. What could go wrong? Its like its news to them that asymptomatic persons can spread the covid.

Just end the damn season then

You sure can tell that the Royal fans are jealous. They are coming out of the woodwork to take shots at the Cardinals.
[Reply]

The Royals have over three times as many wins as the Cardinals. Losers.
[Reply]

How many Championships again?
The Royals are the Bungels or Browns of the MLB.

Dude, just don't. :-)
