Cubs Will Maintain ‘Skeleton Crew’ in Mesa, Most Players to Remain Through March

Major League Baseball announced Friday that spring training camps would be suspended immediately, giving players the option to stay, return home, or return to their club’s home city. That decision came after a meeting with MLBPA officials in Arizona and was made “in the best interests of players, employees and the communities who host Spring Training,” per a statement from the league.

Jordan Bastian of MLB.com tweeted Friday evening that most Cubs players are expected to remain in Arizona for the time being, but that they could relocate to Chicago in April.
