Good morning, Athletics Nation!
Monday brought good news and bad news in terms of the coronavirus pandemic in MLB. The St. Louis Cardinals, the latest team to get hit with an outbreak of positive cases, saw the severity of their situation worsen — at the time of yesterday’s Rumblings post they had six cases, and now it’s up to 13, including seven players. And whereas they were going to resume play on Tuesday in Detroit, that whole series against the Tigers is now postponed, putting them a full week behind schedule.
On the bright side, the Phillies are cleared and good to go, returning to action Monday in a 6-3 loss to the Yankees.
