Cubs manager David Ross and five other Tier 1 individuals are missing Monday’s workout at Wrigley Field as they await Saturday test results. According to a Cubs statement, the “overwhelming majority” of test results from Saturday have already been reported.
Tier 1 includes all essential on-field personnel, including players, coaches, trainers, doctors, physical therapists and the bullpen catcher.
“We’ve decided to do the prudent thing, so myself and the five others will not attend this morning’s workout,” Ross said. “Out of an abundance of caution, we think it makes sense for the six of us to wait for clarity.
