As a die hard Cub fan I wish he was. He not going to make the roster for 9 games for contract reasons. But there hasn't been roster changes in the game since Oct of 2014
I fully understand the reasoning. Think of it from this guys perspective. He is ****ed. They may have retained his rights for another year but may have lost him completely after that.
That's not how you treat a guy that hit 43 homers in AAA last year and was the best MLBer in spring training this year. Keep him up, treat hi well, and let him know that if he performs they will throw the farm at him. I stand by my statement.... Same ole Cubs. Never have and never will....
I agree with you on how you should treat him. But there is 1 little factor his agent is Scott Boras. And Boras does not do contracts like Braun and Longoria did. He waits until he can bend you over a barrel. Cubs management used the little power the owners have over the players union to guarantee Bryant's rights for another year. Once he up in a couple weeks, this will all blow over. I just hope he doesn't end up being a bust. Now that would be the same ole Cubs. Lol

LOL it's not like they released the guy. Quite the contrary, they get to keep him for 1 more season before he hits free agency.
