The past couple days here in Mesa have been drizzly as the Cubs began workouts with Pitchers and Catchers. The players here have been able to get some work in despite of the less than desirable weather. No worries though, the ten day forecast looks sunny and pleasant!

The big news early in this Cubs camp has been the arrival of new pitcher Yu Darvish. So today we give you a photo montage, shot by our ace photographer John Antonoff of Darvish in his first days of camp. I’m going to mix in some other photos from camp as well, so it’s not all about You…I mean Yu. Enjoy!
