You never know what you're going to see at Chicago Cubs camp with wacky manager Joe Maddon pulling the strings, and Friday was no exception.
A couple of baby cubs were passed around for a cuddling session prior to warmups, and some players warmed up to the idea more than others.
Anthony Rizzo embraced the opportunity to hold the bears, while Jake Arrieta looks like he'd rather be getting down to business.
The reigning National League Cy Young Award winner probably had a good laugh after one of the cubs reportedly peed on Rizzo.
David "Grandpa" Ross also seized the opportunity to take another young cub under his wing.
Even Cubs executive Theo Epstein didn't shy away from the furry mascots.
