Colorado Rockies, Kyle Freeland prepare for coronavirus impact on sport

Kyle Freeland addressed the issue of the impact of the coronavirus and possible implications of the disease on his and the team’s activities during spring training on Thursday morning during an interview session with media at the Colorado Rockies spring training complex in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Freeland addressed the possibility of facing a scenario of whether the season would continue as scheduled or if spring training games might be halted due to the coronavirus situation.

“It’s almost impossible to fabricate a competitive environment, especially for spring training games,” he said about the difficulty of preparing for the upcoming season should spring training be suspended or cancelled.
