Chicago Cubs: Kris Bryant may be on pace for his best season yet

As unbelievable as it may seem, Chicago Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant may still be underrated.

The young slugger is generally looked at as one of the game’s superstars, alongside big names like Bryce Harper and Mike Trout. However, ever since his MVP season in 2016, it seems that his success has somehow still been somewhat underplayed.

Almost two months into the season, Bryant is currently batting .301 with 22 RBI, eight home runs and 25 strikeouts. He has been the Cubs most consistent hitter so far this season. Bryant leads the team in batting average, on-base percentage, slugging percentage and OPS.
