NEW YORK -- The Chicago Cubs might play the unofficial opener at the new Yankee Stadium.
The Cubs and Yankees are talking about playing an exhibition game or games the weekend before most teams open the regular season, on Monday, April 6.
While the Cubs are the Yankees' first choice, the teams are still negotiating.
The official opener of the $1.6 billion ballpark is April 16 against Cleveland.
