Conforto Lands on Cubs Opening Day Roster as Suzuki Waits
TL;DR Summary
Michael Conforto will be on the Cubs’ Opening Day roster as Seiya Suzuki isn’t ready and Tyler Austin is sidelined with knee surgery. Signed to a minor-league deal with a big-league Spring Training invite, Conforto could back up in the outfield corners and may share right-field duties with Dylan Carlson, particularly against right-handed pitchers, a role aided by his 121 career wRC+ vs. RHP.
