(CBSMiami)- The Marlins are in the midst of dealing with a COVID-19 outbreak within the team as reports indicate that at least 15 players have tested positive over the course of the last three days. In response, Major League Baseball has said that it is postponing all Marlins games through Sunday.
In a statement the league said that the games against the Orioles on Wednesday and Thursday and the home series against the Nationals Friday through Sunday are postponed until a later date as the team deals with the outbreak of cases.
“Given the current circumstances, MLB believes that it is most prudent to allow the Marlins time to focus on providing care for their players and planning their Baseball Operations for a resumption early next week,” the league said in a statement.
