Alex Verdugo is '100 percent ready' to play baseball – as soon as it's safe

Alex Verdugo, who would have missed the start of the MLB season while rehabbing a stress fracture in his back, is “100 percent ready” to play, whenever it’s safe to do so amid the coronavirus pandemic. And while he’s eager to play, the outfielder said the league’s reported plans to start the season – like isolating players in Arizona, away from their families – need some work. I’m all about safety,” Verdugo said Monday on a conference call with media.
