Cody Poteet is in line to start Thursday’s Cactus League opener against the Dodgers, per Jordan Bastian and Sonja Chen of MLB.com. Poteet joined the Cubs in December as part of the trade that sent Cody Bellinger to the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact:
Poteet is likely to serve as minor-league depth once the regular season begins, but he will get an early look in camp with Chicago not using all of its regular starters. The 29-year-old right-hander posted a 2.22 ERA with a 16:8 K:BB over 24.1 innings for New York in 2024. While not expected to crack the Opening Day rotation, he could emerge as a depth option if injuries arise.
