Season Ending
-
Why does everyone one assume that the season is going to be cancelled? Unless guys get more reckless and you start seeing complete outbreaks on multiple teams there’s no way they cancel the season. Owners and players (Especially owners) have a lot to lose, and if players haven’t opted out at this point they’re all in.

yea especially when it was the stupidity of the player. I have no clue why ppl are still being reckless with this but they are and this is what happens because of it. Stay in the bubble you dont need chicken wings that bad for f sake

But that’s the thing, MLB has no bubble. That’s where they went wrong in the first place

We've now had outbreaks on two teams. Manfred in the beginning used this exact incident as an example of cause to justify ending the season.

I know agree 100% but all teams had guidelines and even Jeter came out and said they were to lax with everything. Common sense is still common sense

The only places they considered for a bubble, Texas, Florida and Arizona had spikes right before restart. Having 900 players plus staff is different than the 200 or so the NBA and NHL deal with.

Probably because we suspect there will be "complete outbreaks on multiple teams." We saw 16 or 17 guys get it on one team -- an embarassingly short three days into the season. I'm all for being optimistic but I'm not for being foolish.
(Before anyone says anything .... shush.)

Clutch.

If Derek Freaking Jeter -- the guy who is known to have every STD on the planet (and even some that may have originated on other planets) -- is suggesting his team was too lax around infectious diseases, then they must have been bathing themselves with vials of covid.

The Premier League ran without incident in a similar structure that MLB is doing. Unfortuately, we (theUS) have done so much more poorly unilaterally.

Why aren’t the players dying? That’s your answer.

Yeah he did and it seems like his bosses (the owners) set him straight and he suddenly went from a threat to “we’re not gonna give up on the season so easily”. They’ve restricted players leaving hotels at this point. If players don’t want to be shunned by the rest of the league I’d assume they’d opt out if they have a problem staying in the hotel. Yeah the Marlins and Cards outbreak was bad but that was directly correlated to players leaving the hotel and going out. I don’t think we’ll see anything like the Marlins again. Yeah you might see some random hiccups but I think both players and owners are taking this pretty seriously now.

That's where YOU are wrong...
They didn't go wrong...it is impossible to have a bubble for baseball and football. -

For real.. as serious as the virus is... People seem to think that getting it means you are deathly ill for days/weeks.... If they don't cancel the season during flu season each year they aren't going to cancel it now because of some cases on a few teams.... if someone does get deathly ill or die, even the 75 yr old equipment manager, then yeah.. they might cancel.
