Shortly before Washington Nationals’ skipper Davey Martinez talked to reporters today in the nation’s capital, Major League Baseball announced that in light of the fact that Miami has now had 15 players test positive for COVID-19, all of the Marlins’ games through this Sunday have been postponed.
That, of course, includes the planned three-game set with the Nationals in Marlins Park in Miami this weekend.
Martinez talked about the possibility of this happening before Monday’s series opener with the Toronto Blue Jays in D.C.
Though, as usual, he said his focus was on the night’s matchup with the Jays, Martinez said, “Hopefully they make the right decision, that’s all I’m going to say.
