Majority Of Dodgers Minor League Players Sent Home From Camelback Ranch In Response To MLB Memo About Coronavirus Pandemic

Major League Baseball has continued to adjust its plans and policies in the wake for the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic prompting the cancellation of remaining Spring Training games and delaying the start of the regular season by at least two weeks.

Teams initially were permitted to keep their Spring Training facilities open and available to players, which the Los Angeles Dodgers intended to take advantage of by holding involuntary workouts.
