The Chicago Cubs take on the San Francisco Giants on Sunday in their second Spring Training game of the year. While it's still very early in the spring, the lineup, and who is being sent out to play on Sunday, highlights quite a few questions that are surrounding the club.
Will we see Chatwood improve his control immediately
The Cubs have been talking about Chatwood's work over the winter attempting to find his control again. This afternoon will be the first time we get to see if he's making progress.
Watch Tyler Chatwood discuss starting anew this season after a forgetful 2018. He's made a slight mechanical delivery change to help his control. https://t.co/pR87ByfWhs pic.twitter.com/l5KmFFeMpf

Ian Happ gets time at second base
Happ came up through the system as a second baseman. He played there for a while in 2017. In 2018, he saw almost no time at 2B. On Sunday he's getting the start there as the Cubs figure out how to make their lineup work.
Don't write the obituary on Ian Happ's career as a second baseman just yet.https://t.co/9p17VeYnSg

Addison Russell is officially back
While he's going to miss the first 40 games of the 2019 season, he can still participate in Spring Training. How he plays, and how he's welcomed by the fans is something to watch on Sunday.

New and improved Almora?
Albert Almora has been said to have found a bit more pop so far this spring. He's at leadoff today against a lefty. Can he and Jason Heyward form a combo that will actually be an effective leadoff hitter?
Is that Albert Almora Jr. putting on a batting practice show at Sloan Park? @sahadevsharma confirmed it is, in fact, Almora. Interesting quotes on his new batting stance. https://t.co/EcgmOwmi32

Return of the show Bote?
David Bote got off to a great start for his Cubs career. Then he trailed off as the rest of the offense tanked. With a full winter of preparation for the Bigs under his belt, can he be an important piece for the Chicago Cubs this summer?
