LAKELAND, Fla. — Many Detroit Tigers are likely leaving spring training.
One day after Major League Baseball suspended exhibition play and postponed the first two weeks of the 2020 regular season, MLB and the Players Association have come to an agreement to suspending all baseball activities in both MLB and the minor leagues, according to an announcement from the MLBPA.
The Tigers have a meeting scheduled for Friday afternoon to address this, according to multiple persons with knowledge of the situation.
