The Cards previously reported 13 positive tests from their traveling party, including seven players.

Saxon also provided some more sobering news with the Cards due to all the game postponements.

This is problematic for a lot of reasons. Among them: the #Cardinals haven’t played since July 29 and already were trying to play 55 games in 52 days. https://t.co/UWo4zzvYfF
