    Delino DeShields Jr. has tested positive for COVID-19, so he is still at home. He’s doing well, and needs to have a negative test before he joins the team in Cleveland.

    4 more Phillies placed on injured list with no explanation of why.

    "What I can tell you is they're on the injured list, and that's about all I can tell you," Girardi said Thursday. "MLB has given protocols on how to handle it. I don't have a timetable on those players. I can't really answer that question. As soon as I get an answer, I will give it to you."
    Seems like enough of an explanation to know what's going on with those 4 guys.

    Apparently one of those guys is the source of a mid-June birthday party that spread the virus. I won't say who it is but it's pretty easy to figure out.

    Red Sox interested in signing All-Star RF Yasiel Puig.
    Other teams interested in Puig include the San Francisco Giants, Tampa Bay Rays and San Diego Padres.

    I'm in favor of me getting to see more Puig.

    Funniest timeline: Trout sits out the season, Angels win the World Series, he returns next season, Angels are mediocre again.
    I'm not a system player. I am a system.

    Puig's value goes down some in the No Fight Club era of MLB

    MLB/PA announce first COVID-19 test results: Total number of positives 38, which is 1.2% of the 3,185 total samples tested.
    31 of these 38 positives are players and 7 are staff members. 19 clubs had 1 or more individuals test positive during intake testing.

    For players only that percentage is about 1.8% (assuming 1750-1800 players)

    For comparison 25 of 351 NBA players tested positive, which ia 7.1%. NBA players do skew about 3 years younger than MLB players though so this isn't necessarily a surprise (about 26 vs 29). MLS positivity rate was 2.7%.

    Those are good numbers. Let's see what happens after 3 weeks of camps.

    Brian Snitker said Freddie Freeman, Will Smith, Touki Toussaint and Pete Kozma all tested positive for COVID-19. Freeman is still battling a fever. Smith and Toussaint have been asymptomatic. These are the only four Braves who are known to have tested positive.
    That's rough news for Braves fans.

    Giancarlo Stanton just lined a ball off Masahiro Tanaka on the mound, appeared to go right off his head.

    Scary scene as the training staff runs out on the field.

    I read an update on the Tanaka situation and apparently he was down for a few minutes and was helped off the field with assistance. No news from the Yankees yet.
