With multiple prior pinch hit successes and a reputation as a great teammate and all-around good [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With less than a week to go until the Cubs open up the 2017 season in St. Louis, the vast majority of the Opening Day 25-man roster has been pretty clearly solidified with just a few final exceptions. The most notable of those is the battle for the final bench spot. With Joe Maddon’s known [&#8230;]]]></description>

All that&#8217;s left to do now is to prepare for the playoffs, and that includes trying to decide who is the best fit on the playoff roster. Most of the spots have [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I suppose that if there are statement losses, then this must have been a very big statement win. Last night&#8217;s game ended on a bit of a controversial note with the fourth ball that walked in the winning run, and all of that came after the pitch that probably ended Matt Holliday&#8217;s season. So today felt [&#8230;]]]></description>

Here&#8217;s what it looked like: There&#8217;s any number of interesting angles to talk about here.

The front office had already had an incredible offseason, bringing in top-level talent at three different positions via free agency, and adding an intriguing arm in [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the last stretch of the off-season—for me, the part that stretches from the Cubs Convention in mid-January until pitchers and catchers report a month later—there&#8217;s a lot of nervous chatter, inane conversation, and debate over the most minor of details involving baseball players and teams. While it would be nice to have real baseball [&#8230;]]]></description>

That&#8217;s not a bad thing&#8212;lord knows they&#8217;ve done enough already&#8212;but it does mean that the present period, running roughly between the end of Cubs Convention and the beginning of Spring Training, lacks a certain something when it comes to news.
