And I haven’t seen anything to suggest they won’t be paid as normal, so I’m not even sure what pham’s argument is.
He hasn't heard anything, which is kind of his point. He doesn't know the pay and service time ramifications.
Why wouldn’t he just assume he’s going to get paid as normal? No ones said any different?

If the season start time (when it a was supposed to start) comes and goes and there’s no check, I could see speaking up then.

Now? What’s the point? He’s not supposed to get paid now anyways.
He was interviewed.

Mariners release Tuivailala. He must have really [expletive] up, or his arm/shoulder is really [expletive] up.

Are teams really going through the motions of setting a 26 man roster and if why?

They probably have to have a set roster so that salaries and such are understood. Major league vs minor league pay for example.

If he wanted, Mark Hamilton could show off his World Series ring at work.

But the fill-in first baseman for the 2011 champion St. Louis Cardinals prefers to keep that prize safe at home.

“The surgical scrub tub, not the most conducive place to wear it,” Hamilton said.

On Friday, under an accelerated schedule prompted by dire circumstances, the former big leaguer is set to graduate a month early from medical school on Long Island.

Next stop for the rookie doc, the first-hand fight against the coronavirus pandemic in one of the world’s hardest-hit areas.

Mark Reynolds was still a free agent so with this whole COVID thing going on he probably wasn't going to get signed this year anyways, so makes sense for him to hang 'em up.
