Commissioner Rob Manfred says he believes MLB's health protocols are working despite an outbreak of COVID-19 within one of its teams, the Miami Marlins.
"We built protocols anticipating that we would have positive tests at some point during the season," Manfred said in an interview on MLB Network on Monday afternoon. "The protocols were built to allow us to play through those positives. We believe the protocols are adequate to keep our players safe."
The Marlins had 11 players and two coaches test positive over the last few days, forcing the cancellation of both Monday and Tuesday's games against the Baltimore Orioles.
