Kris Bryant took MLB by storm in 2015, and hit 26 bombs on his way to NL Rookie of the Year honors. Bryant clobbered a dinger off Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Joe Blanton on Tuesday, foreshadowing what should be an amazing season for Bryant and the Chicago Cubs.
Joe Maddon has no chill.
New Chicago Cubs outfielder Jason Heyward bought teammate David Ross one of the coolest retirement gifts of all time.
Here's a list of five players the Chicago Cubs can't afford to lose to injury in 2016.
The 2016 Chicago Cubs are in prime position to win the division thanks to grabbing Jason Heyward and John Lackey from the rival St. Louis Cardinals.
The New York Yankees have zero chill.
The Chicago Cubs and Atlanta Braves can both accomplish what they are currently trying to accomplish with this trade. The Cubs continue to build towards winning a World Series, while the Braves continue to build towards a strong future by stock piling prospects. Win-Win.
