Good news update I’ll share up top: According to David Ross (via Russell Dorsey), no Cubs players have tested positive for COVID-19, despite four players showing up on the COVID-19 related IL. That doesn’t mean they can’t still test positive in the near future, but it’s still a good sign. Original post follows.
Well, this is neither new nor entirely unexpected, but it is certainly disappointing for all sorts of reasons. After going all of 2020 without any major COVID-related concerns, the Cubs are dealing with a bit of a problem here in 2021.
First, first base coach Craig Driver tested positive for COVID-19. Then, Cubs bullpen coach Chris Young tested positive for COVID-19 . Then, three relievers (Jason Adam, Brandon Workman, and Dan Winkler) were placed on the COVID related injured list (which, to remind you, does not mean any of them actually tested positive).
