Horrific 2017-2018 offseason continues There is really no excuse for this one. Chatwood was a calculated risk that didn't work out and Darvish has been an unexpected disappointment, but Morrow was a giant injury red flag from the beginning. Him being significantly injured surprises noone.
Rizzo will be ok. Bryant... I'm not so sure. He won't continue to be this bad, but I'm not optimistic that he will suddenly resemble MVP KB again anytime soon.
I know it is silly and there are so many bigger things to worry about, but the more I hear about players going to the "IL", the more I hate it. What was wrong with calling it the Disabled List?
Bryant was the only shot to do anything. This guy is unfair against lefties. I disagree. Rizzo will give a good at bat. Bryant never had a shot. He is the last guy I would want up in that situation.
What's with the Zobrist for Schwarber defensive replacements? Without looking at any defensive metrics, I would be really surprised if Zobrist rated higher than Schwarber.
This doesn't look like a potential bottleneck at all... https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/media/116255090-132.html Instead of being able to traverse the upper deck by using the wide walkway under the press box (which actually offered a view of the game), now there is a very narrow walkway that runs behind the newly constructed Catalina Club.
