The Chicago Cubs Ben Zobrist surprised his former teammates by accepting skipper David Ross’ invitation to spring training camp in Mesa last week. While this gave fans hope that Zobrist could be back with the team, Ross made it crystal clear that this was not the case.
Beginning his managerial career with the Cubs this season, Ross had lots of changes to make, including filling the hole Zobrist left at second. With options such as Jason Kipnis, Daniel Descalso and Robel Garcia ready to take on second base, the provided depth shows this isn’t a huge issue after all.
