Chicago Cubs infielder Javier Baez (hamstring) is expected to return to Cactus League action "by the end of the week," manager Joe Maddon said.
Baez tweaked his hamstring last week but there isn't any concern about his Opening Day status.
numberFire projects Baez to hit .256 with 19 home runs, 60 RBIs, 59 runs scored, and 11 stolen bases in 497 plate appearances this season.
