schema:articleBody	Coronavirus concerns continue to cast a shadow over Major League Baseball's build-up to a pandemic shortened season, with the Houston Astros cancelling practice Saturday as Kansas City reported a player tested positive for COVID-19. The Astros opted to cancel a day's worth of training after a staff member reported potential exposure to someone who had tested positive for the virus. "As part of MLB's testing and reporting plan, we were alerted that a staff member was potentially exposed to a COVID-positive individual outside the organization," Astros general manager James Click said in a statement. "Out of an abundance of caution, we have cancelled today's workout. "We are working closely with MLB and our team physicians to follow the established testing and cleaning protocols so that we can safely bring our players and staff back to the field as soon as possible." It marked the second time this week that the Astros have cancelled training because of coronavirus concerns. Within hours of the Astros' announcement, the Royals announced that catcher Cam Gallagher had tested positive after participating in Friday night's instra-squad training game at Kauffman Stadium. Kansas City said the 27-year-old was asymptomatic. "To say this caught me by surprise would be an understatement," Gallagher said in a statement released by the team, adding that he "felt great" during the game and had no clue he'd been infected until his test result came back on Saturday morning. "I am asymptomatic and will continue to work as hard as I can to stay ready while I quarantine," Gallagher said. "The first couple of weeks of workouts have just made me that much more excited about our ballclub and I can't wait to rejoin them and compete as soon as I'm allowed." MLB and its players union on Friday said that 83 people -- 71 players and 12 team staff -- had tested positive since coronavirus testing began last month. Teams have been conducting workouts for the past week in preparation for the delayed and shortened 2020 season, which is due to start on July 23 -- four months after the originally scheduled Opening Day in March. bb/dj
