Hahahahahaha what a joke

The Astros players get nothing. Kelly gets suspended for 10% of the season

That's some NHL level of discipline right there!

 

[FLYguy3911]

Apparently the Phillies are playing the Yankees next week.

Seranthony is finally having his Tommy John's surgery today. A year and two months later ...

 

[FatTugboatFlahr]

So f***ing stupid.

Phillies halt activity at stadium after positive tests

The Philadelphia Phillies have canceled all activities at Citizen Bank Park after a member of the coaching staff and a member of the home clubhouse staff tested positive for COVID-19, the team announced Thursday.
The team said no players have tested positive.

 

[SnS]

Not shocked at all.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Can't wait for the Marlins to make the playoffs with their .667%

 

[Petr Svoboda Mullet]

Weekend games now postponed

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

At least our .333% might get us the first overall pick.

 

[Flybynite]

At least our .333% might get us the first overall pick.

Hopefully if that happened then spring sports is different and a vaccine is successful enough to alter things drastically or it's a #1 pick of a guy who hasn't played many games in almost 2 years.

I think thats it for the Phillies and Marlins. I think the league will announce that it will continue without those 2 teams. Their opponents will play each other the rest of the way.

League should come down hard on the marlins.

 

[FLYguy3911]

You can’t just disqualify two teams. This isn’t the MLS.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

It’s bullshit if they went that direction because not a single Phillies player has tested positive up to this point and they’re going to be the ones that suffer. I don’t see it as being an actual possibility though. They’ll figure something out.

Also, I read that pay is based off of how many games the players play but MLB has said that the Phillies, Orioles, and Yankees will be paid for these missed games. Who is covering that? The league? Because it’s kind of bush league for the Phillies to have to pay their players out of pocket with no revenue whatsoever. I’m sure if they don’t play another game that the networks will be keeping their money.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Well if a coach has it, chances are it’s only a matter of time before a player tests positive.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

I still question if it’s possible that this whole thing was actually started by the Phillies employee that was working the visitors clubhouse and not the other way around.

Doesn’t seem like that thought it crossing anyone’s minds. Although, I haven’t checked lately to see if the Atlanta strip club theory has any type of verification since it came out.

What other choice do they have?

 

[SnS]

What other choice do they have?

rip season.

 

[wankstifier]

This hard stop on cheating has been disastrous for my fantasy team. Yelich and Bregman have been zeros.

[dragonoffrost]

Love the Reds grounds crew taking to Moustakas...

 

[FLYguy3911]

What other choice do they have?

You either have to wait until those teams are healthy and let them resume their season and base the standings off of win% or cancel/postpone the season.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Another one.

Saw Joe West trending on twitter. I figured he was making another great case for electronic strike zones.

I won't applaud this scumbag's injury (because that would be against the rules!!!) but you'll note he's not wearing a mask despite squatting a few feet from every single player to play the game. Robot umps can't be vectors.

Here he is yesterday covering his double chin but conveniently leaving his mouth and nose open.
