Cubs infielder Daniel Descalso has scoop on new mates, professes love for grandma’s meatballs in this week’s chat room

After signing a two-year deal with a club option last offseason, infielder Daniel Descalso was the new Cub on the block in spring training. One of his only friends on the team when he arrived was pitcher Tyler Chatwood, who was Descalso’s teammate on the Rockies for two seasons.

Descalso never really had those first-day jitters when he joined the Cubs. He immediately meshed with his new teammates and said the family-like atmosphere of the clubhouse made him feel welcome.

After getting to know the Cubs over the last four months, Descalso spilled the tea on some of his teammates, such as naming the best-dressed Cubs player and who needs fashion advice.
