How can this work?
The Velveteen Ocelot
(115,674 posts)2. The idea is to eliminate travel, but are they going to be able
to keep all of those teams cooped up and quarantined in New York for the whole season, such as it is? It doesn't make any sense.

Do-able, but difficult.

"Four more members of the Miami Marlins have tested positive for the coronavirus after the latest round of testing, sources familiar with the situation confirmed to ESPN.
The Marlins have now had 17 people test positive in the past five days. On Monday, the total of confirmed cases stood at 11 players and two coaches."

The other issue seems to be that Marlins players clearly didn't follow guidelines given how rampant the virus has spread. If you watched any games over the weekend, you saw players not wearing masks, high-fiving and touching each other. That stuff must be cleaned up ASAP.
