How the MLB Will Destroy Itself

How the MLB is going to self-destruct their season 
  As several teams experienced multiple COVID-19 positive’s, they are showing the world what not to do. As the Miami Marlins have 18 players and two staffers test positive for coronavirus, and six tests from the St. Louis Cardinals are coming in positive, and a player on the Cincinnati Reds reporting symptoms of COVID-19 as of Sunday, August 2nd at 3:25 pm, it’s clear that the MLB screwed things up. But what did they screw up?  Well, let’s first start with travel. The MLB is having teams travel from city to city to play. Now, even though they are limiting rivals to only those in the same area of the country (for example: The West Coast and Midwest) in order to limit the games needed to be postponed. However, planes are proven to spread COVID-19, so if even one player gets COVID from their neighbor that get saw the day before, the entire team gets it, which bring us to our second topic. A bubble. This keeps players in one general area, kind of what the NBA and WNBA is doing. So, if they tested everyone in the league before they got in the bubble, they could stop COVID-19 from spreading altogether. And that prevents that player from going to that neighbors house altogether! And for the biggest issue: not imposing a full, 14-day quarantine. The Marlins are scheduled to play in a few days, only a week after a first person tested positive. DO NOT DO THIS IF YOU HAVE COVID-19. YOU COULD KILL SOMEONE IF YOU DON’T.     So in a week, expect the NBA to jump on baseball’s commissioner for being that dumb with setting up his season. And if you don’t think so, watch there be no such thing as a baseball season in two weeks. The MLB’s reopening plan is  one that America’s insane Governors offer: more COVID-19. It just awful.
