Good morning evening, Athletics Nation!
It worked out nicely that I didn’t get Rumblings up this morning, because all the interesting news came out throughout Friday and now it won’t have to wait until Monday.
The top headline of the day was the conclusion of MLB’s investigation into Justin Turner. The Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman received a positive test for coronavirus during the final game of the World Series, and instead of staying isolated he returned to the field after the final out to celebrate the championship with his teammates.
Commissioner Rob Manfred chose not to punish Turner at all, releasing the following statement:
Major League Baseball has completed its investigation of the events following the Los Angeles Dodgers Victory in Game Six of the World Series.
