Cubs manager David Ross remembers how much fun he had on his first day of draft preparation meetings when he was a special assistant in baseball operations.
“I loved hearing the scouts and all the front-office guys and the [research and development department] dissecting these guys and what they could and couldn’t do and start organizing the names,” Ross said Thursday. “And then the first day ended, and we had three days left. And I was like, ‘We’ve got three more days of that? No, thanks.’ ”
