let's move this all to the social thread, tx, so as not to clutter this one up. I agree with a lot of the stuff you're saying but disagree on a few key points.
You have proof Yadi's niece was thoroughly tested and is quarantining and never coming in contact with people without mask on, etc.?

I'll concede immunity aspect, and before people say "but family!" do you know if his niece is living with him? Never leaving the house unmasked? Following protocols?

I don't know anything other than what he said in his post. I also don't know if other players families are strictly adhering to any guidelines or whatever.

My personal feelings are that families are likely a large source of contamination for the players and why bubbles have worked much better than what mlb is attempting. But, i'm not going to pass judgement on anyone let alone a guy that just got over it being in his house with less than 10 people whom he claims are family who get tested or people also just getting over it who likely got tested as well.

Like I said, the optics are bad. But, regarding risk to yadi or the team, I have a hard time finding any due to my perceived notions about his ability to get infected as of right now.

And, I may be wrong. Just my 2 cents.

Fair enough.

Mo responded appropriately this time instead of whining about being questioned about it so that's an improvement. But I don't think it could be denied that the Cardinals are not looking good overall in regards to their brazen /careless behavior towards COVID.

And, that's true. They don't look good.

Bad faith stuff, etc.

One guy. Not entire team. I don't see photos of them going out and brazenly posted etc.

Call me when a team misses three weeks after brazenly going to concerts and lakes and their GM getting defensive about it then making a 180 weeks later.
