MESA, Ariz. – There have been a few storylines to come out of the early part of Cubs’ camp, but few are more intriguing than right-hander Adbert Alzolay and what he could mean to the 2021 Cubs.

“We love to compete,” Alzolay said. “So I feel like everyone is doing their part to go and compete for that spot and then it’s just up to the organization of what they want to do.
