Seems like teams are reporting on the normal dates this year. I figured it might be a little earlier because of the WBC.

All weekend spring training games are sold out already?

Can you watch regular practice at Sloan park before the games start? What is the schedule for that? I might try to go before the first game if possible.

Does anyone have spring training tickets. Looks like all the weekend games are sold out. There are tickets on stubhub. My plan is to go on Feb 18 or that weekend and see if I can catch a practice and get a pocket schedule.

All 38 Cubs spring training games will be broadcast on TV, radio or internet radio, the team announced Monday.

This is the first time that all of the team's spring games have been broadcast, the Cubs said in a statement.

Ten of the games will be on TV (either WGN or CSN), 10 on WSCR-AM 670 and the rest via internet radio on cubs.com.

I was able to get two games right when they went on sale. I bough 2 for 3/14 vs Milwaukee and 2 for 3/15 vs Arizona.
