Thursday BP: MLB introduces punishments for not following protocol

Hello and happy Thursday. I hope you enjoyed the San Francisco Giants win over the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday. I sure did.

Speaking of things that happened on Wednesday, MLB sent a memo to teams letting them know two important things. First, the new health and safety protocol is in effect immediately. And second, players can be punished — including being banned for the season — if they fail to follow the protocol.

1) Per sources: Teams were sent memos today outlining the new and enhanced protocols which are effective immediately.
