Cactus League games have arrived for the Cubs! Here are the latest updates from spring training.
Kris Bryant wasted no time proving his shoulder is 100%. A one-handed home run in his first spring training at-bat? Sure, why not!
Bryant then singled in his next at-bat, but what made headlines after the game were his comments. We've all seen the PECOTA projections for 2019, and player rankings that have Bryant listed way too far down. After four below average months of baseball, Bryant has definitely noticed some of the negativity and he's using that for motivation.
That's my MVP! On Sunday, Tyler Chatwood made his spring training debut and it wasn't good. https://www.sportsmockery.com/2019/02/update-tyler-chatwood-is-still-bad/
Just one rough start, right? Yet, that wasn't even the most troubling development from Sunday's game. Madison Bumgarner nailed David Bote in the head. https://www.sportsmockery.com/2019/02/joe-maddon-gives-update-on-david-bote-after-he-got-beaned-by-madison-bumgarner/
Jon Lester is starting today. Here's how the rest of the rotation is set up for the week.
Joe Maddon is following Theo Epstein's orders and is doing a lot more hands-on coaching in camp.
And I guess there's now more emphasis being put on bunting.
Hmmmm. I prefer hitting dingers, but OK. And Maddon has his new shirt for 2019.
Oh, and Addison Russell played on Sunday and then he talked.
You know what, go back to the scripted the answers.
