As camp nears, Orioles report no positive COVID-19 tests or player opt-outs. They know that could change.

An initial wave of Orioles players and coaches are due at Oriole Park at Camden Yards on Wednesday for testing ahead of a three-week training camp to prepare for the 2020 season. As of Monday evening, executive vice president/general manager Mike Elias said that no one from the team has opted out of the season yet, even as others around the league announced their intentions of doing so.

Elias also said that the Orioles fortunately haven’t had any positive tests for COVID-19 as players return to their home stadiums this week for sanctioned workouts for the first time since the pandemic shut the game down in March.
