Last Friday, Pedro Strop and two members of the Cleveland Indians, Jose Ramirez and Franmil Reyes, went to dinner, breaking MLB’s COVID-19 protocols.
Strop was sent home from Cubs camp, but returned Tuesday. This morning, he offered an apology:
Pedro Strop extremely apologetic for breaking protocols a few days ago by going inside for dinner: "I made a mistake. I want to take the chance to apologize. The rules are there for a reason. I didn't mean to expose my teammates and others to Covid."
