The Phillies are set to play a baseball game tonight, 7:05 p.m. against the New York Yankees. That’s great news after the schedule came to a screeching halt eight days ago, when it was revealed that the Miami Marlins had an outbreak within their team.

Another squad dealing with issues is the St. Louis Cardinals, who have now had five straight games postponed as a few more players test positive for COVID-19.

From ESPN:

The St. Louis Cardinals have multiple new positive results for the coronavirus within the organization as a result of Saturday’s testing, sources told ESPN’s Jeff Passan on Sunday.

Sunday’s testing is being fast-tracked, sources said. The Cardinals said in a statement they don’t anticipate any official updates until Monday.

On Saturday, the team had one player and three staff members test positive, while four more members of the organization had inconclusive results, team president John Mozeliak said during a video conference call with reporters.

The inconclusive tests came from one player and three staff members. The Cardinals have been isolated from each other since arriving in Milwaukee for a three-game weekend series, and all three games have been postponed.

St. Louis was set to play four against Detroit in a home-and-home, but now those four games are shifted to Meeechigan, with a Wednesday double-header on the slate.

All of this has resulted in some wonky discrepancy and imbalance, with the Phillies and Marlins only playing three games, the Cardinals playing five, and unaffected teams like the Braves and Mets already up to ten. MLB will use “this new thing called winning percentage,” as Rob Manfred explained, to determine final standings in a season where where some teams might play 60 games and others might play ~55, or fewer. He is an inspiring commissioner, always ahead of the curve and always on top of things (thick sarcasm).
