Baseball is scheduled to return on July 23rd for a 60-game season. Positive tests will continue to roll in throughout the season as players continue to go through the testing protocols. Keep track of which players test positive in the 2020 Fantasy Baseball COVID-19 Tracker. Most players are returning after the minimum 14-day quarantine but some have remained out for longer.
Some players have chosen to forego the season altogether, keep track of who will not play in 2020 in the Opt-Out tracker.
Positive tests roll in very quickly and owners need to be aware of who tests positive and how it affects their team. The COVID-19 tracker aims to provide an easy reference to find players who have tested positive and cleared protocol. It will also keep a record of players who remain out due to the MLB protocol.
Those looking for draft advice should check out Joe Bond’s 2020 Fantasy Baseball Rankings. The team at Fantasy Six Pack has also covered how the short season will affect starting pitchers and which injured players benefitted from the extra time off.
