Vitters out 10-14 days with quad injury
Josh Vitters - 3B - Chicago Cubs
Feb. 23, 2013 - 12:15 PM ET

Josh Vitters will be sidelined 10-14 days with a "mild" quad strain.

The Cubs will be without Vitters and Ian Stewart (quad) for the first two weeks of spring training. The injuries should give Luis Valbuena an extended look at third base, though both are expected to be ready in time for Opening Day.
