Cubs remain on high alert as coronavirus outbreak enters NL Central

Major League Baseball continues to battle coronavirus outbreaks on multiple fronts. The virus has made its way to the National League Central and put the Cubs in a precarious position.

The St. Louis Cardinals are the latest team to succumb to an outbreak with several players and staff members testing positive this week. The Cardinals were supposed to face the Brewers in a three-game series this weekend, but that series has been postponed.

The Cubs are scheduled to start a three-game set with the Cardinals in St. Louis on Friday, but it’s still unclear if those games will be played.
