You can chalk me up as one of the people who’s ready to move on from Albert Almora as the everyday answer in center field moving forward. For the better part of two years, he’s been one of the least valuable offensive players in baseball. But the Chicago Cubs are still hanging on, hoping for him to tap into the potential that made him a first-round pick back in 2012.
I’ll give him credit though – he’s not shying away from his shortcomings. Almora knows he hasn’t played up to the standards he or the organization have set.
