Cubs plan workouts to stay sharp with weekend series postponed due to COVID-19

Saturday was a quiet day for the Cubs after Friday’s whirlwind in St. Louis. The Cubs three-game series against the Cardinals was postponed after three more members of the Cardinals tested positive for COVID-19.

The positive tests increased the number of Cardinals players and staff infected during the latest outbreak to 16. The weekend postponement was the first time the Cubs have experienced a change in their schedule due to coronavirus.

“I think overall, it’s just another one of those reminders of how quick things can get out of control right now in this environment,” manager David Ross said.
