Bote is slashing just .188/.316/.375 through seven Cactus League games.
Meanwhile, his primary competition for the job at second base, Nico Hoerner, is slashing a robust .563/.588/.938 through six games of his own. The Cubs haven't tipped their hand yet at the keystone, but even if Bote doesn't secure the role, he has the versatility to play across the infield and should still get fairly regular at-bats.
