The Cubs first official on-field workout is next Saturday (Feb. 20), the first full-squad practice is scheduled for Feb. 24 and the Cactus League games begin in 19 days on March 3. Baseball is just around the corner.
The Cubs made two roster moves Friday and since the list of non-roster invitees was released at the end of January, two additions have been made to the Spring Training roster.
LHP C.J. Riefenhauser was claimed off waivers from the Orioles and replaced LHP Edgar Olmos on the 40-man roster. The Cubs signed OF Matt Murton to a minor league contract with an invite to Spring Training.
