\n PHILADELPHIA \u2014 Instead of preparing for Monday night\u2019s game against the Phillies by undergoing saliva tests for COVID-19, attending meetings and watching video of their at-bats at the team hotel, the Yankees spent the day locked down waiting to see how the same tests taken by the Phillies earlier in the day turned out.<\/p>\n

The Phillies expected the results later in the evening. It wasn\u2019t clear when the Yankees would get their tests back.<\/p>\n

MLB announced Monday morning the Yankees-Phillies game at Citizens Bank Park, and the Orioles-Marlins game in Miami, were postponed while the league conducted additional COVID-19 testing after 11 Marlins players and two coaches tested positive over the weekend when they were in Philly for three games.<\/p>\n

MLB didn\u2019t offer information on the status of the Yankees\u2019 Tuesday night game against the Phillies at Citizens Bank Park. It wasn\u2019t clear if the clubs would play a doubleheader or one game or no games. Obviously, the plan would be tied to the Phillies\u2019 test results.<\/p>\n

The Yankees were still at the team hotel at 5:30 p.m., so it was highly likely their travel<\/a> plans were contingent on the Phillies\u2019 test results.<\/p>\n

With the Phillies scheduled to play the Yankees at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday and Thursday, those games also could be in jeopardy depending on the Phillies\u2019 test results.<\/p>\n

With Phillies staffers who work in the visiting clubhouse sent to quarantine and unable to unpack the Yankees\u2019 equipment truck Sunday night, the Yankees sent several clubhouse employees from Yankee Stadium to Philly on Monday. However, due to an ultra-cleaning process the equipment wasn\u2019t inside the clubhouse as of late Monday afternoon.<\/p>\n

According to NBC Sports Philadelphia, the Yankees called the Phillies on Sunday looking to shift Monday\u2019s game to Yankee Stadium but the discussion didn\u2019t result in a move.<\/p>\n

Before the game was postponed, the Yankees had Zoom calls set up with Aaron Boone, Masahiro Tanaka and Geritt Cole. Those were canceled and the team didn\u2019t allow anyone to talk about how it felt to follow the Marlins into a clubhouse or their feelings on playing Tuesday evening in the same park where Monday\u2019s game was postponed.<\/p>\n

J.A. Happ<\/a> was slated to make his season debut Monday night and Cole\u2019s start Tuesday evening would be his second of the year. If a game is played Tuesday, Happ could start it and that would move Cole to Wednesday night\u2019s game against the Phillies in the Yankees\u2019 home opener. Jordan Montgomery, the original home-opener starter, could then pitch his first game of the year on Thursday in The Bronx or Boone could start James Paxton on normal four days\u2019 rest and bump Montgomery. Paxton didn\u2019t make it out of the second inning against the Nationals on Saturday night in Washington where the Yankees were battered, 9-2.<\/p>\n

Of course, since the Yankees and Phillies are playing two games in The Bronx on Wednesday and Thursday already, they could stage a doubleheader at Yankee Stadium to make up for Monday\u2019s postponement. If Tuesday night\u2019s game isn\u2019t played, it wouldn\u2019t be likely to play back-to-back doubleheaders at the Stadium.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
