MLB commissioner Rob Manfred says 'we are playing'

[Willie99]

Somebody has to report the "better" news around here, provide a little balance in the narrative

------------------------------------------------

Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred remains confident the 2020 season can continue, telling ESPN's Karl Ravech on Saturday that "there is no reason to quit now" despite positive coronavirus tests that have led to the postponement of 17 games in 10 days.
"We are playing," Manfred told Ravech. "The players need to be better, but I am not a quitter in general and there is no reason to quit now. We have had to be fluid, but it is manageable."

Yes, but it is looking bleak.
MLB will probably fold...
Players show a positive test, NO SYMPTOMS, and all hell breaks loose.
They all played WITH symptoms with the flu.
These young extremely fit athletes should NOT stop playing ball because some questionable test says they have the Chinese virus even though they feel fine.
