16 weeks after winning the World Series, the Dodgers will play a baseball game on Thursday, opening their Cactus League slate by hosting the Cubs at Camelback Ranch.
The Dodgers through Monday have held seven days of official workouts at Camelback Ranch, including three days’ worth of full-squad workouts. In reality though, several of the position players have been in camp longer than that.
But this week is different, as we will have actual Dodgers baseball to observe, either on television or in person.

The Dodgers will open Cactus League play on Thursday, February 20 by hosting the Cubs at Camelback Ranch, getting the spring training stage to themselves a day ahead of everyone else thanks to those two teams opening the regular season a week early with two games on March 18-19 at the Tokyo Dome in Japan.
Cubs and Dodgers play again in spring training on Friday, this time in Mesa. Here’s a look at the Dodgers schedule of Cactus League games this week:
- Thursday, February 20: Dodgers vs. Cubs
- Friday, February 21: Dodgers at Cubs
- Saturday, February 22: Dodgers vs. Royals
- Sunday, February 23: Dodgers vs. Padres
All four games start at 12:05 p.m. PT, and all four games will be televised by SportsNet LA with Tim Neverett and Rick Monday on the call. That feed will be simulcast on AM 570 for the first three games, through Saturday. The Spanish-language radio team, featuring Pepe Yñiguez, José Móta, and newcomer Luis Cruz, will call the first five Dodgers spring training games from Arizona, through Monday
