He’s a player that was under team control. He is also a player that appears to be a slap hitter. It will suck to see him with the Cubs going forward but unless he gets better I don’t think he will be an All Star. Certainly not franchise breaking.
They may have dodged a bullet with not bringing back McCann this year. They definitely need a defensive catcher, at least one starting pitcher if not two, adding more arms to the pen and an actual second baseman and right fielder. I’m not sure if they can meet those needs but if they want to win a World Series that is what is needed.
