Delayed results had several members of the Cubs organization worried.

Chicago Cubs skipper David Ross and five other Tier 1 individuals, including both players and coaches did not attend workouts at Wrigley Field on Monday as a safety precaution after not receiving their COVID-19 tests in a timely manner. A majority of the team’s results were reported by Monday morning, but Ross and these five other individuals found themselves anxiously waiting as their tests “anticipated further clarity.”

This is not the first incident the Cubs have had involving COVID-19 testing throughout summer camp so far.
