The 2020 Miami Marlins season has officially been paused. This news comes just hours after four more players tested positive for COVID-19 in the latest round of testing conducted on Monday. This brings the total number of Marlins players with coronavirus to 15, plus two staff members.
The full statement from Major League Baseball:
Major League Baseball announced Tuesday that all games on the Miami Marlins’ schedule have been postponed through Sunday (BAL @ MIA tonight, MIA @ BAL Wednesday and Thursday, and WSH @ MIA Friday through Sunday). Given the current circumstances, MLB believes that it is most prudent to allow the Marlins time to focus on providing care for their players and planning their baseball operations for a resumption early next week.
