Baseball is back and the Cubs are ready.

With news of the return of baseball releasing on Tuesday night, Cubs players took to social media to share their excitement on the return of America’s pastime. Players will report to Spring Training 2.0 on July 1 — likely at Wrigley Field — with the season slated to begin on July 23 or 24. The Cubs will play a 60-game schedule with 40 games against the NL Central and 20 against the AL Central. Catch the 2020 season on Marquee Sports Network. 

Here’s what the players said on social media:
