The league said "it is most prudent to allow the Marlins time to focus on providing care for their players and planning their Baseball Operations for a resumption early next week."
Scheduling changes were also made for four other teams affected.
The Orioles, who were scheduled to host the Marlins in a two-game series starting Wednesday, instead will host the New York Yankees for games Wednesday and Thursday.
The Washington Nationals were slated to play the Marlins later in the week. A majority of Nationals players voted against playing the Marlins earlier Tuesday, according to ESPN and multiple reports.
The Phillies are currently off the schedule through Thursday and the Nats are currently off the schedule Friday through Sunday.
"The difficult circumstances of one Club reinforce the vital need to be diligent with the protocols in all ways, both on and off the field," MLB said. "We will continue to bolster our protocols and make any necessary adjustments. The realities of the virus still loom large, and we must operate with that in mind every day. We are confident that Clubs and players will act appropriately, for themselves and for others, and the data provides reason to believe that the protocols can work effectively."
More scheduling changes will be announced later in the week.
