As Major League Baseball has determined the start of the 2020 season will be later than first anticipated and the Miami Marlins front office has closed camp in Jupiter, Florida what happens now?
“On Sunday, the Marlins announced they were closing their Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium complex. For now, the organization is in a holding pattern,” writes Joe Frisaro of MLB.com.
“But whenever teams are cleared to get back onto the field, the Marlins still will have some unsettled business to take care of in finalizing their Opening Day roster.”
The Marlins aren’t the only team in the Majors with decisions to make, but as fans saw early in camp and on the diamond in the Grapefruit League, making decisions to fill out the 26-man roster won’t come easy for manager Don Mattingly, who returns for his fifth season.
