Other Washington Nationals players and staff members have apparently cleared protocol from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention after Juan Soto tested positive for COVID-19.
Hannah Keyser of Yahoo Sports shared the team's statement that said, "Contact tracing was conducted and none of our players or staff were deemed to have met the CDC definition of close contact. We will continue to follow MLB's protocols and guidelines."
This comes after general manager Mike Rizzo told reporters Soto tested positive and was asymptomatic after testing negative multiple times.
Soto played in Tuesday's exhibition against the Baltimore Orioles, so it is not difficult to envision a situation where other players were exposed depending on when he caught the virus.
