In Thursday afternoon’s Chicago Cubs practice game, the regulars rested, but there were some implications for the guys who did play to entertain the crowd. You see, the roster heading to St. Louis in April for the season opener is pretty much set, and on the position player side, there is only one bench spot to be played for. I was considering making the poll (see below) include Munenori Kawasaki (yes, we’re serious) and Jeimer Candelario, but they won’t factor in on the depth chart unless something catastrophic happens.
