Javier Báez, 2018 National League All-Star? Excluding Kris Bryant, there may be no other Chicago Cubs player more worthy.
Báez, 25, has easily been one of the most impressive hitters for the Cubs to start the season. Really, he has been of the most impressive players in all of Major League Baseball thus far in 2018.
Hot start at the dish
In 33 games, Báez is hitting .287 with 10 home runs and 33 RBI. His .636 slugging percentage is otherworldly, ranking fourth in MLB entering Friday’s opener against the Chicago White Sox.
