The Chicago Cubs’ Ben Zobrist is back! Okay, not so much ‘back.’ He was a guest instructor and David Ross let that be known. Zobrist showed up at Ross’ at the invitation and got to hang out with John Lackey.
He also got to mingle with Jon Lester and some other pitchers. One difference? He didn’t seem to retire and the end of his contract. Curious? Maybe not. He didn’t retire after his four-year deal. But Ross said he’s taking it in.
“He’s here just observing, hanging out with the boys,” Ross said.
