One week today, the Cubs — or, more correctly, a bunch of guys wearing Cubs uniforms — will take the field at Camelback Ranch to face the Dodgers. Most likely, even if there are a handful of everyday Cubs regulars in the lineup, by the fifth inning they’ll be replaced by guys who will probably spend 2025 in Double-A...2025
