Chicago Cubs’ third baseman Kris Bryant is a special talent. Bryant has the skill to hit 39 home runs, leg-out 35 doubles, and score 121 runs. Those numbers, of course came last year during his MVP campaign. Bryant’s .292/.385/.554 slash line, his 102 RBI, and 149 OPS+ won him 29 out of a possible 30 first place votes for the award last season.
After racking up the accolades last season, which included an All-Star Game appearance, World Series title, and of course MVP award, Bryant set out to improve upon his already stellar play. To do that, Bryant started focusing on hitting the ball to the opposite field.
