healthy and will get a shot (as much of a shot as any non-roster
invitee gets) to make the Cubs’ bullpen as a long man.

Pete Crow-Armstrong put on a show last night, which I mean in the most literal sense. It was more like a performance than a baseball game. Bases-loaded HBP while showing bunt? OK, sure. Running easily to first on a dropped...
