As the Marlins attempt to resume their season, more than half of the team — infected with COVID-19 — will finally leave Philadelphia and take a sleeper bus back to Miami, where players will be held in a single location to quarantine, according to multiple reports.

The Marlins haven’t played since Sunday — and have games postponed through this upcoming Sunday — in Philadelphia, where the team has remained isolated since numerous players tested positive for the novel coronavirus, which has been contracted by at least 18 players and two staff members.

Pending the approval of MLB, the healthy members of the 30-man roster — plus a mix of players from their alternate training site and free agent and/or waiver pickups — will reportedly travel to Baltimore to face the Orioles, followed by road games against the Mets and Blue Jays (in Buffalo).

“The health and safety protocols were designed with a challenging circumstance like the one facing the Marlins in mind,” MLB said in a statement after pausing Miami’s season. “The response outlined in the joint MLB-MLBPA Operations Manual was triggered immediately upon learning of the cluster of positive cases, including contact tracing and the quarantining and testing of all of the identified close contacts.”

MLB is investigating what caused the Marlins outbreak. A source told the Post’s Joel Sherman that “something happened massively disruptive to the process that is not going on anywhere else.”

One coach and one staffer for the Phillies have tested positive, leading to the cancelation of their weekend series against the Blue Jays. Two members of the Cardinals tested positive and their game against the Brewers on Friday has been tentatively rescheduled as part of a doubleheader on Sunday.
