'Now we REALLY get to see if MLB is going to put players health first. Remember when Manfred said players health was PARAMOUNT?! Part of the reason I’m at home right now is because players health wasn’t being put first. I can see that hasn’t changed." - David PriceComment -
david price calling it like it is. NFL players opting out today and the numbers increasing.
putting bytches in their placesComment -
it's up to MLB to decide on that now, not themOriginally posted by blackbartComment -
NFL has 0.00% chance of working without bubbles. They need to set it up seriously or they may as well not bother. Either that or just admit they give no fukks about player health and let them play like gladiators, with the fallen still on the field, lol.
Anyway, my Pats are now looking like serious contenders for Trev Lawrence! Entire defense opting out. Bill's gonna be sending his kids out there.Comment -
That was the original rule if you can’t field a team it’s a loss for that team. It seems mlb is having a issue with enforcing its own rulesOriginally posted by Mac4Lyfe

Isn’t this why teams have these taxi squads or whatever ready and waiting? Pretty sure I saw a list of like 60 guys cards have at their disposal if something like this happened. I would think they will have available bodies and these postponements are to simply make sure they got all the infected out before they resume.Originally posted by CapybaraIn all seriousness, how does the league handle this now? 17 positive cases on Marlins. I doubt the virus transferred to the Phillies because it doesn't really transmit outside.
Do we just cancel all Marlins games for two weeks and make those games unplayed games? That's what I'd do. But then there's the issue of how to compare records if the Marlins are competitive this year!

Borrowed time ... any minute/hour/day now.Comment -
Yeah, good point, Banker. We haven't heard any mention of the taxi squad or whatever. Maybe MLB thinks it's a bad look (again, a little archeic, gladiator-style) to say Okay, wheel off your wounded and bring in the fresth meat!Originally posted by 2daBankComment -

The problem in the NFl is you can’t receive medical assistance and stay in a bubble.Comment -

just wait until an OL guy with a high BMI ends up on a ventComment -
How you like it that negitive test means nothing because of the 14 day incubation period.
Should the Phillies have to be shut down for 14 days minimum.Comment -

Finally. Out of the clouds of Stupidity, a voice of Reason is heard.Originally posted by jjgold
Death rate for these athletes in their 20s and 30s is ALMOST zero. OK, I get no fans in attendance, I get
the frequent testing, I get the stupid masks and all the other stuff.
But not playing? Sorry, I don't see the logic.Comment -
Death rate for these athletes in their 20s and 30s is certainly very low
Death rate for these athletes in their 20s and 30s with covid is certainly very much higherComment -
About one in a thousand, probably. Indeed, it could even be FAR LESS THAN THAT -- perhaps one in,Originally posted by blackbart
say, five thousand -- as opposed to the overall death rate of THREE in a thousand for the general
population, which includes the REAL at-risk group (old people).
And I'm not aware of ANY pro athlete deaths related to this. So you really can't speculate
accurately about this. Yes, I'm aware that I'm speculating too....
I fail to see how "very much higher" it could be when so little data is available this early
in the epidemic.
But everybody seems to be engaged in some kind of Paranoia Olympics over this, rather
than just isolating/treating those with symptoms and practicing preventive measures.
It's like a new form of insanity.Comment -
blazer relax and keep your pecker in your pantsComment -
All Marlin players will recover and show little to NO symptoms just like ALL THE NBA players that got Corona and recovered already.. Be surprised if any show symptoms at all on the Marlins team.. Corona overrated now!!!Comment -
They're worried about their family members namely the elder ones. This point doesn't seem to be getting through to a lot of peopleOriginally posted by blackbart

Don't be surprised if players start faking injuries to be send home. Verlander already got hurt to get out of the risk of catching the virus.Comment -
