Mariners moving first two home series

This looked to be brewing the last day or two. Now official

Damn it I was going to skip out on work and head up for the opener!

If things keep going the way some say they are going, we won't be going to work anyway.

You know, if a serious disease ever came our way, we'd just curl up and die. I've never seen such stupidity over 38 deaths. Makes you want to pull a Patton and smack somebody!

And opening day isn't likely to happen. Lot's of time between now and then. First sign of any player getting sick and the whole thing gets delayed. This will end up being like the strike shortened season. There won't be 162 games this year.

We will all be home a lot more, and have a lot less to watch.

With the NBA going on hiatus tonight and other sports venues doing similar things due to the virus concerns, the MLB will have to make some huge decisions coming up as they try to start the season. This is now beyond the Mariners not starting at home to start the season.

Doubt we even see this series until May.


Just bein honest.

 

[seattlefan75]

Yeah I agree with some of the other comments I think it is better to suspend the season before it even starts I wouldn't even be surprised if they didn't finish spring training as soon as an MLB player test positive for the virus its over

Thats my opinion as well at this point

 

[CaptainStubing]

Play them in China. The virus is gone there now

 

[mcnabb7542]

Screw it, let them play in empty stadiums and televise the games.
Got to let these young kids play, get their AB's in and grow.

Besides I can sit at home drink good beer and take my pants off with folks not having a hissy fit about it!

On the bright side of things, this will extend the length of time that it takes for the Mariners to have a losing record

Very odd start to the season this will be. eerie

First sign of any player getting sick and the whole thing gets delayed.

Iv'e no doubt that at least one MLB player will get the virus. It's all about numbers.

Rudy Gobert of the Jazz essentially suspended all sports

 

[seattlefan75]

My question is if the season start april 9th and 3 weeks later a player tests positive or even in the minor leagues does that stop the entire league again?

I'd guess April 9th is wishful thinking at this point but who really knows. They probably want to make sure this is handled before they even attempt to start things up and we have no idea how long that will take.

 

[WizardHawk]

If this season happens it likely won't start until at least May, and that may be wishful thinking.

This thing isn't going away, nor slowing to the point we can resume normal life for a few months.
