Reds are sweating now...they thought they had that #1 pick locked

So with no reason given and being able to select Sampson who wasn't previously on the 40 man, Stroman's ailment is presumably covid, right?

Yeah pretty much has to be

I think Schwindel benefited from late season not caring scouting. I hope he goes down and works on his weaknesses and gets some confidence back, but I also hope he enjoyed his time in MLB because it’s probably over.

What’s even MLB’s Covid protocol now? Are they still testing daily or weekly or something? Or do you only get tested if you show symptoms/feel sick? And if you test positive what’s protocol to come back? Is there a mandated time off or like if Stroman feels fine and tests negative tomorrow can he pitch like Tuesday?

[Rex Buckingham]

Pretty sure I saw a tweet from Wainwright last week that said something about needing 2 negative tests

Surprised Ricketts didn’t have him sit in the jump seat

[CubinNY]

Why is he flying to San Deigo? I thought he was sent down.

Guessing there’s another injury or COVID situation and he’s been called back up. Pretty sure that’s the only scenario that he can come back up so soon

Ricketts acts like Catch Me If You Can is a financial planner.
