Good news, bad news for Colorado Rockies fans …
The good? BASEBALL’S BACK!!!!
The bad? Three players — including megastar Charlie Blackmon — have reportedly come down with coronavirus.
The stud right fielder — who’s been recently working out at Coors Field to gear up for the season — tested positive late last week … according to the Denver Post.
Reliever Phillip Diehl and pitcher Ryan Castellani also had positive COVID-19 results.
According to the Post … only one of the players is showing symptoms — although it’s unclear if that’s Blackmon, a 33-year-old, four-time All-Star.
Of course, the league just announced Tuesday it has plans to restart play next month … but it remains to be seen just how officials will handle the recent outbreaks of coronavirus.
Remember, the Philadelphia Phillies just had at least 8 people test positive … which ultimately led the MLB to lock down spring training facilities the past few days.
Officials seem confident they’ve got a sturdy plan in place regardless … but if tests keep coming back positive — could it derail the league’s newly announced start time??
Stay tuned.
