So for the many players whose seasons have been suspended or shut down, what should they be doing for the next few months? Right now they were in-season or ramping up, pitchers would be pitching once a week and throwing bullpens, fielders would be hitting and fielding in games. We don't know if summer ball will happen or not, so presumably they have to try to aim for that. If they can't practice with a team, what do they do on their own? Go back to winter weight-lifting routines (assuming gyms are even open)? Try to throw as many pitches/innings as would be normal in-season? Shut down for a few months until they know what's happening?
