Javier Baez will start the season on the DL with a “left thumb contusion”

Neil Ramirez will make the team in the bullpen

Tommy La Stella will make the team as an infield backup

the Cubs were indeed able to keep all of Kawasaki, Shane Victorino, and Manny Parra on minor league deals

Baez DL is backdated, so he should be ready for the home opener.

Have to think Szczur will be odd man out when Baez is back. Szczur is out of options too

INF and OF are beastly. SP and RP are good, but not best in the league level.

Should win the division.

If the Cubs could keep Herrera on the team last year for the goofy head scratch thing they did all season, they can keep the goofball Asian dude over Matt Scazzufjrfiuvcmn rur.adrie.

That's a damn strong roster. They will add an elite SP to the mix before the deadline and be tough to beat come October.

I like the addition of Warren, but if there is a weakness its the bullpen.

This might be my favorite season ever if the Cubs and Astros can live up to the hype and meet in the World Series.

Also, just ordered MLB 16 and I will be having a DH for my Cubs franchise.
