I hate to pile on a guy, but damn Heyward is a rally killer. To bad we couldnt get rid of that contract in off-season.

He was a 99 wRC+ last year, or league average. Better than former CCS Cubs Forum 2015 "Boy Toy of the Year" Ender Inciarte, whom most of the board wanted to trade Javy Baez for at one point.

If saying Heyward is the worst hitter in the league leads him to actually have a fucking hit i'll continue to say it then

It's a good thing the Cubs finally traded Contreras for a no-bat assclown with elite ump foolin' skills.

Not sure what Rizzo was thinking glad he didnt get doubled up. Is it just me or is these players baseball and IQ on the field getting worse. It always look like they are still playing in little league.

If Willson Contreras ever adds mental awareness to his physical skills, he'll be a superstar.

Heyward is athletic, and it just seems he should "break out of it'. But that's like expecting someone to just become a deadly jump shooter after being pretty poor.

I have held out hope, but it is waning. As it should have long ago.
