What should MLB punished Turner for his actions?

No.

And I fully I'm fully aware that I am in the minority.

I'm fully aware that I'm probably standing alone on this.

I don't give a damn.

This man found out after at the end of the seventh inning.

You're talking to me about this guy has been there for 12 years.

It's a world Siris on the line.

You said that the tests were inconclusive.

You knew this before the game.

You knew this during the game, which means that you had a license to keep him in the game or to pull them.

You made the choice to keep him in the game once you pulled them from the game at the end of the seventh inning.

Okay, it's the World Series.

It's a championship.

You waited your entire career for this and excuse me, I'm supposed to sit up there after I've been playing for seven innings after I've been around my teammates after I've been on the field after we played the first seven innings and then all of a sudden, because I want to celebrate, I have to be punished.

What about Major League Baseball's protocols.

I love how everybody's talking about Justin Turner.

I love how we're debating the Dodgers.

I love how that, but we're not debating, In fact, Max Kelemen MLB.

You said months ago they should have had a damn bubble.

We had question marks, huge question marks as to whether or not they were going to complete the season when the Miami Marlins tested had all of those positive tests, we pointed the finger at Major League Baseball when the ST Louis Cardinals had all those steps.

Had a few positive test anyway, we pointed that Major League Baseball, even when a couple of Cleveland Indians, even though those players trying to get slicked and what have you we still pointed to Major League Baseball?

Why, Because you didn't have a bubble.

You were allowing guys to come and go as they please.

Yes, they were getting tested every day.

But you are allowing them to come and come and go as they pleased because you couldn't negotiate having them in any kind of a bubble that would restrict their movement and therefore prevent them from being, you know, spreading the virus in some kind of way Major League Baseball.

You don't play a role in this.

If you were sloppy all along, I'm supposed to sit up there and capitulate toe all of this in the eighth inning off a World Series game when I've just been playing the first seven innings.

I've been around my teammates the last few days, the entire Siri's.

They said It's like a 2 to 14 day incubation period, and obviously they have played the World Series.

So in other words, they timed it and said he might have contracted all of this last week.

Well, you've been around them all of these days.

You are around them that you are around them That game for the first seven minutes.

If this had happened before the game, it if this had happened before the game, I got it.

But the fact that he played seven innings and you pulled him out in the seventh inning, the woman you don't get that moment back.

I'm sorry.

I don't think he should be punished.

You should have water mass should engaged in social distancing, but to be punished.

This man just won the World Series, and we're talking about We're actually having a conversation about him being punished 24 hours.

I don't think it is one of the heart.

E don't have ever been more wrong about anything on this show.

Sure.

Now, look, I will say this.

Yesterday I was on the radio, and when I first heard he wasn't compliant with Major league baseball, he emphatically disgrace and suspend him for a year.

And Stephen a nose.

When you're doing radio and the news comes in and you get hot about it, sometimes you say something on the spot and you calm down and think about it.

You go.

No, that's not a year, not a year.

But I'm serious about a serious punishment for Justin Turner.

Here's the problem.

We have not taken Covitz seriously enough in this country, period.

What are you talking about?

I'm walking around with a mask.

I haven't seen my relatives in six months.

No, we haven't.

We were late to close.

We were early toe open.

Not enough people wearing masks.

People in denial about the death count which is approaching a quarter of a million dead Americans.

Why do you think in Canada their their death percentage of co vid cases is so much lower than here.

Less than half as a percentage of the population took more seriously.

We're not and we share a border with Canada.

We're not taking it seriously enough.

It's one thing, and that's the fault off.

It's not just American kind of exceptionalism, and we're the sense that we're individuals and we're risk takers.

I think that plays into it, and that's legitimate part of what makes America America.

But a lot of it is bad role modeling from the very top of our government, obviously.

And when it trickles down like this, we see the effects.

Justin Turner Everything you said is true, Stephen A weight.

I was able to be in the dugout with an inconclusive test.

You can play major league baseball for that, But then the test comes back positive and they test the sample again and it comes back positive.

He has co vid actively right now.

At that point, you got to go sequester yourself.

You gotta go isolate yourself or he needs to be taken somewhere into isolation.

That's the attitude everyone has toe have.

And if we do that, we'll get it under control.

And if we don't.

This is what we get right now.

He went out on okay.

He kissed his wife.

We've talked about this.

He's figuring if I have it, she has it.

I understand that.

It's within your own household.

I get it.

You go out on the field with your teammates.

You sit next to a cancer survivor who's who's like 50 years old.

How how's Roberts now?

Dave Roberts gotta be about 48 years old who survived now, even if you say, well, it's okay with his teammates.

It's okay with his manager.

They accept the risk.

That's not even the point.

It's not about you, and it's not even about the person you're interacting with.

It's about all of us, especially the most vulnerable among us.

There is a lot of misinformation out there right now that there are only 9000 people dead of Cove.

That's an idiotic statistic.

Where people are getting that from that's disinformation.

Where they're getting it from is that that's how many people died of co vid with no other problem, no diabetes, no whatever else.

But that's the very point.

If you have an underlying condition, this could be a deadly disease.

That's mainly who were protecting When we try to stop the spread, if he's around people, if he willfully said, I know I'm positive, but to hell with it.

I won the World Series and I'm gonna be out there with my teammates and baseball, said Don't.

And he went out there anyway.

Stephen A.

I haven't heard from Justin Turner.

I'd like to hear his side of the story because we don't know if that's exactly true.

That's what major league could have restrained him.

You could put some of this on MLB as well.

Let's see, we don't even know what.

Let's wait until Justin Turner gives his side and we'll see what happens.

But if his side coincides were, there's at least a month suspension like a serious suspension.
