It would be very demotivating of have virtually no chance for a call up no matter how great you were doing in Stockton.
I would think that it would still be possible, but for sure it would add on 2-weeks per potential call-up (quarantine).

It absolutely could impact potential decisions on player development, but at the same time, these are COVID times and it may just not be feasible to do so. In a shortened season and additional taxi squad/roster spots, there probably would be fewer opportunities for some of these players to make the big club anyway.
