With just weeks until pitchers and catchers report, teams across Major League baseball, including the Chicago Cubs, are making a flurry of roster moves and announcements. And, for the Cubs, there are a handful of interesting names joining the team in Mesa next month.
The Los Angeles Dodgers designated Mike Freeman for assignment following their acquisition of Yu Darvish last summer. Shortly after that, the Cubs signed him to a minor league deal. Before working his way up to the major league team, Freeman slashed .273/.345/.390 over 88 plate appearances in 23 games at Triple-A.
