Additional Cardinals personnel test positive for COVID-19 casting uncertainty on series, next steps

MILWAUKEE — After two rounds of tests Friday for COVID-19, the Cardinals remained quarantined in their Milwaukee hotel hoping that by Saturday morning the results of those tests would end their isolation and the growing concerns of a viral brush fire through their clubhouse.

The "anxiety" described Friday only grew Saturday.

The Cardinals remained in their hotel rooms and were organizing their next steps, according to a source. Trevor Plouffe, the former big-league third baseman, tweeted Saturday morning that he had been told at least four more Cardinals players had tested positive for the virus. Jon Heyman, of MLB Network, reported that "multiple personnel" had tested positive for the virus.
