Schwarber hitting .125 in spring training this year is exactly as relevant as him hitting .412 in the World Series last year (ie it isn't).

tadashi posted:I want to go back in time and argue in this thread that Manny Machado won't make it as a shortstop but also he will probably get as much or more money in free agency as Bryce Harper. He might get moved to shortstop next year if Hardy's option doesn't vest, and based on how good he is at third I think he'd be good enough to stick there too.

Poque posted:Hmmm. Depending on how long the session is and how well Harper can ignore the (I assume) large percentage of balls you'd be throwing, I think he could get over .800 by focusing solely on hitting line drives into right center. Also, I hope you have health insurance.

Zack Wheeler's hairline is loving tragic for a 26-year-old.

Felix has noticeably dropped off over the last 2 seasons, at this point it's much more likely he's done than he's going to win the CY.

I have a very hard time thinking Glasnow is going to win the NL RotY too, he was average at best in his cup of coffee last year. My money (homer pick alert) is on Robert Gsellman.

sportsgenius86 posted:I could go either way on this one. He has the stuff to absolutely be RotY but his command is so spotty. If he can control his pitches better, he'd absolutely be near the top of the list. He's had a problem with walking batters throughout his minor league career, so it's presumably something he's been working on for years without success, and I'm sceptical that he can suddenly find the key in one offseason, especially as he'll now be facing batters with major-league plate discipline.

Hmm yes the Cubs definitely do have a space for a first baseman.
