I admit it. One of the first things I thought of when it was announced the Miami Marlins had to Spring Training baseball because of the threat if the coronavirus was how it would affect players on the roster.
I immediately thought of Isan Diaz. Not because I was worried about him not making the 26-man roster, but because this is the most important year in his young career. How would Diaz, who looked like the next big-league slugger in the team’s lineup while in the minors, improve on a less than solid Big League debut?
