Opening Day 2023 is still 80 days away, Thursday, March 30 when the Cubs will take on the Brewers at Wrigley Field. We’ve still got Spring Training ahead and Jed Hoyer has said he’s not done putting together this year’s roster — hopefully relief help and maybe another hitter.
But that doesn’t mean we can’t begin to speculate about which 26 men will line up along the third-base line at Wrigley just before that game against Milwaukee.
This is guesswork, to be sure, and yes, the Cubs are probably going to add players between now and Spring Training who will come north with the team for the 2023 season.
