Verlander is out for the year.
Now the poor guy has to stay at home with Kate Upton.

Of course it's Florida.
Marlins have a Covid outbreak on the team, have to cancel their game with the Orioles. I dont understand how they'll only cancel 1 game, are they just gonna burn through their 40 man?
No, it does not count towards service time. You have to be on the active roster to accrue time, and on the 40 man roster to be added to the active roster.
Players on the Reds and Braves are on the DL for not feeling well and/or testing positive, too. Braves played the Marlins in exhibition games last week.
My question was more regarding game readiness - presumably the 40man roster are the players who are being kept active and practicing with the team/training staff. Once you play enough of those players, you're going to have to start calling up minor leaguers who are sitting at home/working at McDonalds right now.
But also, it’s probably a moot point. This season is a disaster after the first weekend. It doesn’t need to continue. It’s a shame the players didn’t want to play in a bubble because the NBA has it figured out.
Just watched the Rays come back in the 9th and the 10th. What do more diehard fans think about the extra inning runner on 2nd rule? The Blue Jays scored one in the top of the 10th on a steal and sac fly. Rays came back and scored two off a walk and double. I think it addresses the pitcher issue and adds a sense of urgency that encourages both teams to be aggressive. As a former fan, it addresses that "this could go on forever" feeling at the start of extra innings.
