Giants catcher Buster Posey unsure if he'll opt out of 2020 season

San Francisco Giants catcher Buster Posey still isn't sure if he'll compete in the 2020 MLB season despite participating in training camp.

The 33-year-old, like many, is waiting to see how things progress in the coming weeks regarding the spread of the coronavirus.

Posey said Saturday, according to the Associated Press (h/t ESPN.com):

"There's still some reservation on my end. I think I want to see kind of how things progress here over the next couple of weeks. It would be a little bit maybe naive or silly not to gauge what's going on around you. Not only around you here but paying attention to what's happening in the country, in different parts of the country."

The shortened 60-game MLB season is set to begin on either July 23 or 24, and many players already have opted out. 

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher David Price, Washington Nationals star Ryan Zimmerman, Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Mike Leake and Colorado Rockies outfielder Ian Desmond are among some of the most notable players to announce they won't be competing in 2020.

That's not all, either. MLB's biggest star, Los Angeles Angels right fielder Mike Trout, is considering opting out because he and his wife Jessica are expecting their first child to be born in August. The three-time MVP doesn't want to risk getting his wife or child sick and is uncomfortable returning to the field with the rising number of coronavirus cases in many states.

Trout also has been in contact with various players around the league, and all are thinking the same thing he is: "Is this gonna work?"
