Kinley attended star-studded training sessions
When spring training shut down, players were left to practice at home or in private gyms all around the country in order to stay and shape and be ready for the restart. According to The Athletic’s Brittany Ghiroli, an impressive group of players in the Palm Beach, Fla. area were able to train in a socially distanced way at a Cressey Sports Performance gym. The attendance sheet was impressive: “Justin Verlander, Max Scherzer, Corey Kluber, Paul Goldschmidt, Giancarlo Stanton and more than 30 other big leaguers had quietly been working together – from a safe distance.” Ghiroli also noted that “There were no known cases of the virus among players at Cressey’s gyms.”
