Three days ago I’m relatively certain I’d never written a single word about Ronald Torreyes. In the last 72 hours I’ve written about him twice.
Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with the Cubs‘ newly claimed middle infielder, and he was certainly a Yankees fan favorite, but there are a lot of interesting players that never rise to the level of another team’s blog. Case in point, I doubt I’ve ever written much about Lourdes Gurriel Jr. or Howie Kendrick either. It’s nothing personal, they just don’t really come up all that often here on Bleed Cubbie Blue.
