If Daniel Descalso isn’t ready for Opening Day, who gets that Cubs roster spot?

The Cubs signed former Cardinal, Rockie and Diamondback Daniel Descalso this winter to be a backup at multiple infield and outfield positions, as well as provide clubhouse leadership.

Uh-oh:

Daniel Descalso jammed his left shoulder during Cubs' game against the Angels on Saturday. Shut down from hitting right now. No announced timetable. Could potentially make up ABs in Minor League games later in camp.

That report from Jordan Bastian was on Wednesday. The news wasn’t any better Friday:

Descalso said this morning that he's still shut down.
