Yes, those are actual bear cubs there at Cubs camp this morning.

I’d say former Cubs catcher and current front office member John Baker won the day with this tweet:

Three generations of @Cubs pic.twitter.com/4Yl9roH8pA

UPDATE: Ok, in fairness, I guess Anthony Rizzo deserves credit for the joke, and Baker deserves credit for his humor honesty:

Credit to @ARizzo44 for the "three generations of Cubs" line.
I'm no joke thief.
