Is the grievance that Kris Bryant has filed with the MLBPA against the Cubs over alleged service time manipulation the beginning of the end of his tenure in Chicago? That seems to be a hot topic on Cubs Twitter lately, so I thought I’d address it this morning.
I've very much convinced myself that my ideal outcome at 3B this off-season for the Cubs is to trade Kris Bryant for the biggest haul they can get and sign Mike Moustakas.

Though the Cubs are the target of the hearing, Bryant appears to be merely making a statement on behalf of his union that baseball needs to recognize front offices are gaming the game, so to speak.
