Our Noticias, 8/17/20: Mattingly snaps at ump; Marlins/Mets series preview

Every Marlins player who was infected during the infamous COVID-19 outbreak earlier this season has resumed baseball activities at the team’s alternate training site. This is despite the fact that some of them aren’t virus-free yet, as Jon Heyman explains:

While all 18 Marlins who tested positive were cleared to return. and many had two negative tests, in some cases they were approved to return due to time elapsed and other factors considered by the MLB joint committee. In other words not all 18 had 2 negative tests. https://t.co/6yObYjTYbU
