Tyson Ross Will Sit Out The Season
4 years agoFree-agent starting pitcher Tyson Ross has given it a lot of thought and has decided to sit out the 2020 season amid the coronavirus pandemic. Ross' younger brother Joe Ross, who is with the Nationals, announced earlier this week that he is also planning to sit out the season. Their dad is a doctor and their mom is a nurse. The 33-year-old right-hander was released by the Giants this week, but he might have landed with another team that would've given him a shot to at least compete for innings in the shortened 60-game season. Ross wasn't very good in just seven starts for the Tigers last year, going 1-5 with a 6.11 ERA, 1.67 WHIP and only 25 strikeouts in 35 1/3 innings. He doesn't have much left at this point in his career.
