So, uh, I’m starting to think maybe Nico Hoerner has Double-A pitching figured out. The Cubs’ top pick in last year’s draft has done nothing but impress the hell out of everyone in the organization with his makeup and approach, and he seems to be getting better with each step.
Watch him turn on the jets to round the bases on a liner down the third base line that sure didn’t look like ITTPHR material off the bat. Wow.
