As a Cub fan in LA, this could be my chance to see the Cubs...hooray!!

though the starters won’t be getting much playing time in early March. :-(

Rooms is Vegas get cheaper every month.

I wonder how many of the starters would make that trip...

… considering some of them will be off with WBC teams at that time anyway.

why during the week?

As someone who likes spending a few days in Las Vegas I’d consider going out to see the two games. Them being on Wednesday and Thursday makes that impossible.
