Winter is coming. And once it does, baseball will arrive shortly thereafter.
The Indians on Tuesday announced their 2016 spring schedule, which will begin March 1. Pitchers and catchers will report to Goodyear, Ariz. on Feb. 17, with the rest of the club reporting on Feb. 21. The Indians’ spring slate then beings with three games against the Cincinnati Reds in Goodyear, starting on March 1.
The final spring game at home is March 31 against the Reds. The final spring game overall is April 2 against the Texas Rangers before the 2016 home opener against Boston on April 4.
