Chicago Cubs pitching prospect Ryan Williams has been keeping a diary during his first big-league spring training for ESPN.com. This is his fourth and final installment; Williams was sent back to minor league camp a few days ago. He’ll still accompany the team to Las Vegas for exhibition games on Thursday and Friday against the New York Mets.
MESA, Ariz. -- I had a meeting when I was sent down with Joe [Maddon], Boz [Chris Bosio], Theo [Epstein] and Jed [Hoyer]. They talked about the spring and recapped it a little. They said they were happy with the strides I made.
