This obviously isn't where the Cubs or Kris Bryant wanted to be heading into the final week of the regular season.
Instead of talking about Bryant's level of play or the Cubs' second straight decisive win on the South Side, the 2016 NL MVP stood near his locker, entertaining more questions about his sore left shoulder while he watched Tiger Woods lock up a victory at the Tour Championship.
Bryant did not suit up for the Cubs Sunday, out with what his manager Joe Maddon called "fatigue."
"His shoulder's just a little bit fatigued. Not hurting, just fatigued," Maddon said before the Cubs' 6-1 victory.
