Cubs Manager David Ross, President Jed Hoyer Test Positive for COVID-19

Cubs manager David Ross and president of baseball operations Jed Hoyer have tested positive for COVID-19.

A spokesman for the team said Ross and Hoyer are feeling fine and quarantining. Both of them are vaccinated.

Bench coach Andy Green will run the team while Ross is away, beginning with Friday afternoon’s game against the Pirates. There was no word on any players being unavailable.

Chicago is among a handful of big league teams that have failed to reach the 85% vaccination threshold required for the relaxation of MLB’s COVID-19 protocols.
