"Michael Conforto makes his Cubs debut in right. Moisés Ballesteros is also in the lineup as the DH as he looks to catch up after being delayed by visa issues."
"Shōta Imanaga is on the bump, and we'll see if he can show off the same increased velocity from his first outing. He also got more ride than last year, which is a very promising sign with the ABS aiding pitchers who work up in the zone."
"The southpaw is about three weeks shy of his 31st birthday and he sports a 5.59 career ERA over 44 total appearances. While he's struck out more than one batter per inning, he's also surrendered 90 hits in just over 85 inning."
The Chicago Cubs play a spring training home game against the White Sox at Sloan Park in March. The Cubs lineup includes Nico Hoerner at second, Alex Bregman at third, Ian Happ in left, Michael Busch at first, Dansby Swanson at short, Pete Crow-Armstrong in center, Carson Kelly catching, and Michael Conforto making his Cubs debut in right field. Moisés Ballesteros serves as DH after visa delays. Cubs pitcher Shōta Imanaga takes the mound, showing improved velocity and ride from his previous outing. The White Sox counter with left-handed pitcher Anthony Kay, who carries a 5.59 career ERA across 44 appearances but maintains strong strikeout rates despite allowing significant hits.
