The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has temporarily suspended each of the major professional sports leagues’ respective seasons.
That includes Major League Baseball, who officially announced the stoppage of Spring Training games and a minimum two-week delay to the start of the regular season. With no specific timetable given on when play will resume, MLB first advised players to head home.
They have since informed teams group workouts are no longer permitted as “social distancing” is considered key to stopping the spread of the virus.
The Los Angeles Dodgers had previously planned on keeping Camelback Ranch open for voluntary workouts.
