Major League Baseball said Tuesday that a team will not specifically announce a COVID-19 injured list placement for a player who is removed from the club after testing positive, just an IL trip.
MLB's operations manual says a positive test, exhibiting symptoms that require isolation for additional assessment or exposure to someone who has had the virus are cause for placement on the new COVID-19 IL."It would be a speculating circumstance," Yankees general manager Brian Cashman told media during a conference call.
Last week, Charlie Blackmon of the Colorado Rockies became the first MLB player known to have tested positive. According to reports, the All-Star outfielder was one of three Colorado players to have a positive test. Mets general manager Brodie Van Wagenen said remaining educated about best practices is going to be crucial for everyone.
"We're not pressuring anyone or shaming anyone that feels they shouldn't be here. We're making that known, and I think it's well-received," Elias added. "Our players have been itching to play for a while. I think the whole delay was frustrating for them, for us, and everyone just wants to go play."
