    Time to shut it down. It can't work. It just can't. I give them credit for trying, but you can't have 20 percent of your teams out due to the virus.

    How many teams have now had games postponed because of the Trumpandemic? And do they all connect back to the Jeters?

    Here's the updated list of postponements that need to be made up. Up to seven teams having games impacted because of COVID. Reds and Cubs rained out last night.

    Marlins (7): At Baltimore (2), vs. Baltimore (2), vs. Nationals (3)
    Phillies (7): At Yankees (2), vs. Yankees (2), at Blue Jays (3)
    Yankees (4): At Philadelphia (2), vs. Philadelphia (2). But played two extra games at Baltimore.
    Orioles (4): At Miami (2), vs. Miami (2)
    Blue Jays (3): vs. Phillies (3)
    Brewers (1): vs. Cardinals (1)
    Cardinals (1): at Brewers (1)
    Cubs (1): at Reds (1)--rainout
    Reds (1): vs. Cubs (1)--rainout

    In all, I'm seeing 16 games that need to get made up, including Cubs-Reds getting rained out last night.

    Marlins-Orioles (4)
    Marlins-Nationals (3)
    Phillies-Yankees (4)
    Phillies-Blue Jays (3)
    Brewers-Cardinals (1)
    Cubs-Reds (1; rainout)

    Gotcha.

    It's just everyone else who is rooting against sports. Not you. Just the rest of us.

    I am a Cincinnati Reds fan.

    I have my fingers crossed that baseball will “get smart.”

    COVID 19 is very contagious. Perhaps many will now realize this.

    1. How many drivers per bus will be needed to complete a haul like that without stopping? Two, at least, right?
    2. Will they be outfitted in hazmat suits at all times to prevent infections?
