Many Cubs players are already in Mesa, Arizona working out, but the official pitcher and catcher report day is Wednesday, Feb. 11, and the first full-squad workout will be Monday, Feb. 16.
Today, the Cubs announced the names of 18 non-roster players who will join the 40-man roster in participating in spring camp at the Sloan Park complex. (Other minor leaguers not among those 58 will likely appear in some spring games, especially early.)
