New York Yankees’ Brian Cashman explains why he isn’t leaving Tampa

The outbreak of COVID-19 in this country (and throughout the world) has caused many to question the fate of the 2020 MLB season. Major League Baseball has already canceled the remaining spring training games and delayed Opening Day to mid-May. Some people actually believe the regular season won’t begin until July though.

Because of these difficult times, New York Yankees players and coaches, including manager Aaron Boone, have decided to part from the ballclub’s spring training facility in Tampa. Nonetheless, this doesn’t include general manager Brian Cashman.

“I’m not going anywhere,” Cashman said this week, per Brendan Kuty of NJ Advance Media.
