\n Another day Opening Day, another COVID-19 hiccup for an MLB team.<\/p>\n

The Braves did not receive any positive tests Friday morning, as the Nationals did Thursday with Juan Soto, but they opened the season at Citi Field without their top two catchers, who were left behind in Atlanta after experiencing symptoms of the virus.<\/p>\n

Neither ex-Met Travis d\u2019Arnaud nor Tyler Flowers have tested positive for COVID-19, but neither woke up Friday feeling symptom-free. So the Braves were forced to call up Alex Jackson, who drew the start behind the plate, and prospect William Conteras in time for a 1-0 loss to the Mets at Citi Field.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019ve just got to feel better,\u201d Braves manager Brian Snitker told reporters before the game<\/a>. \u201cI don\u2019t know it\u2019s not just a bad cold or something you would get. But in these times, the red flag goes up and you\u2019re cautious. If this had happ<\/a>ened a year ago today, we\u2019d bring them in, treat them and who knows, they\u2019d probably still be available.\u201d<\/p>\n

These are not normal times, though, as the Braves know firsthand. Their star first baseman, Freddie Freeman, tested positive for COVID-19 at the start of spring training 2.0 and had a fever as high as 104.5 degrees.<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old Freeman recovered in time to be in the Braves\u2019 lineup Friday, but said he addressed his teammates about being honest regarding how they were feeling. With that in mind, d\u2019Arnaud and Flowers did not make the trip<\/a> to New York.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wasn\u2019t shocked to hear it, because we had heard the past couple days [Flowers and d\u2019Arnaud] had had some symptoms,\u201d Freeman said. \u201cUnfortunately, I think this is what is going to happen. There\u2019s no such thing as a common cold anymore. So, if you have symptoms, this is what is going to happen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Even on a day when MLB announced good news<\/a> on its new league-wide testing numbers \u2014 just six positive tests (four players, two staff members) from 10,939 samples in the past week \u2014 the Braves\u2019 predicament served as another reminder of what playing a season during a pandemic will be like.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I hadn\u2019t said anything, I would have infected this whole team,\u201d Freeman said. \u201cSo, I applaud [d\u2019Arnaud and Flowers] for being truthful. It\u2019s tough when you lose your two catchers. But no one is going to feel sorry for us. The Nationals didn\u2019t have Juan Soto [Thursday] night. It\u2019s going to be happening throughout the course of this year.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
