MESA, Ariz. – Cubs infielder Zach McKinstry’s arm garnered attention in a relay that saved a run against the White Sox last week. But it had already caught manager David Ross’ eye in the team’s first infield-outfield fundamental workout of the spring, and the work to make it more consistent started as soon as he got to the Cubs.
“My joke was always that they really drafted me because I had a good arm,” McKinstry said in a conversation with the Sun-Times.
