Another early look at the Cubs’ projected Opening Day roster
Major League Baseball The Cubs have made a flurry of signings since the middle of last week, so I thought it would be useful to take another look at the players who will be on their Opening Day roster.
One thing we do know, at least as of now, is that rosters won’t be 28 players, as they were in 2020:
Confirming: @MLB will have 26-man rosters in 2021, except for doubleheaders, when the limit expands to 27. @MLBNetwork

Here are the 26 men I think will be on the roster when the Cubs open the 2021 season April 1 at Wrigley Field against the Pirates. That date, of course, is also subject to change.
