MLB commissioner Manfred: 'Right now, we think the Cardinals are going to be back'

While the Cardinals wait and test and test and test again, Major League Baseball has mapped a route back to the field for the team and started rearranging games so that even if they don't play a complete season, they can play what commissioner Rob Manfred called a "credible" one.

"I absolutely see a path back for the Cardinals," Manfred said in a phone interview with the Post-Dispatch on Monday afternoon. "That is dependent on getting enough days with no positives that we're comfortable that we don't have any contagion risk. But 100% I see a path back."

The Cardinals' on Monday received the results from their Sunday tests and did not have any new positives for COVID-19, two sources confirmed. The Cardinals continued their daily testing Monday, and Manfred outlined how the team must have "multiple days of clean tests" before baseball will clear the club to regather after a second quarantine in 12 days.
