Or the Marlins are just a franchise full of morons.

While I agree that it's limited mainly to one team...and if you haven't figured out I'm not in the "shut it down" camp yet. However, I don't think that satistic is 100% accurate? Didn't Matt Davidson test positive over the weekend? Also, apparently Juan Soto has been getting positive AND negative tests.

Soto was announced on Wednesday, July 22. I'm in the shut the Marlins down camp, not MLB. The Marlins can't seem to understand how to make it work, like many in the state of Florida and the Miami area.

My bad. It does say "positive cases". I thought I had read positive tests. Apprently Soto must have tested positive over the weekend or else he would be back. Still not sure about Davidson. Some other Reds are on the list but apparently just had symptoms not a positive test.

Yep, according with what I was reading from Reds beatwriters, Davidson had a positive diagnosis but was from before these numbers. Moose and Senzel weren't feeling well, but I haven't seen news of a positive or negative diagnosis for either yet.

Hoping for the best. The White Sox manager woke up with symptoms yesterday but tested negative. Hopefully people are being overly cautious, as they should.
 
Can we all at least agree that canned crowd noise is better than the Fox virtual crowd? (Which I still don't get. I watched an inning or two and still saw empty seats in 90% of the shots)

I haven't seen that yet but it struck me as something that wouldn't be sustainable across a full broadcast. It's only on a couple of cameras yes? Probably the centre field pitch cam and wide field shot behind the plate? Other than that it's just empty seats on all the other camera angles I would guess?
 
I only saw it in the wider shots of the full stadium. Not even on the pitching cam. If it's only on certain shots it's more distracting than the purpose it's supposed to serve.

Yep agreed. It's why I thought it was a bad idea when I first saw it. They don't really have the ability on most broadcasts to do that kind of virtual tracking on more than a couple of cameras per stadium. So I figured it wouldn't be visible in most shots since it's not available on most of the camera angles.

If these Marlins strip club rumors are true i think it's safe to place blame on the players on this one.

South Florida is a whole mess. Thankfully the Rays havent been hitting the Mon's Venus! *knocks on wood*

The Marlins were doing their best Lou Will impression smh
 
Virtual fans looked dumb. Cardboard fans is great. Canned noise is fine as long as it's well done. I don't care how you fool me, just fool me well. Virtual fans doesn't because if done wrong, the players pass right through the fans when they're walking back to the dugout.
