A “small number” of players have been held out of Mariners’ camp after testing positive for COVID-19, manager Scott Servais confirmed to reporters (including Greg Johns of MLB.com). The organization declined to divulge any further information about the identities or current conditions of those player(s).
Per MLB protocols, any player who tests positive must be asymptomatic and twice test negative, with the tests administered at least 24 hours apart, before returning to the team. The Seattle organization originally invited 60 players to Summer Camp, utilizing all of the available player pool space.
