It’s been interesting to follow the reports from MLB front offices and even players on social media as they talk about how they’re spending their time while MLB is on pause waiting for the Covid-19 pandemic to calm down, especially in North America. The reality is, as they follow protocols to keep themselves safe and healthy, very few are working out at all at the moment, which means spring training will essentially have to start over when baseball eventually resumes.
While that’s obviously not a good use of time for a professional athlete, it’s a necessary step at the moment, and one that’s pretty much unavoidable.
