Not that I’m telling you something you don’t already know, but when you take the 2020 Royals, you thin them out for a Spring Training game, and then you thin them out again for a split-squad Spring Training game, well, you’re not necessarily left with a ton of guys who are currently big-league impact types. The Cubs won the game 8-0.
That is to say, Cubs bats and arms owned the day, much in the way you hope they would if they were facing an A-ball squad that was missing its top prospect or two.

Cubs/Royals starting up. Kyle Hendricks making his spring debut. Radar gun could be interesting with him this year. See if he's added a couple mph as was his plan

Jose Quintana felt much better Wednesday after being sidelined with flu-like symptoms. Got back on a mound. Did some running. Will throw live BP on Friday. pic.twitter.com/3WGyngTMOz
