Just in case you have been living under a rock for the last couple of days, the long awaited, and debated, debut of Kris Bryant occurred last night. The Chicago Cubs wunderkind, the player that is being counted on to lead the franchise back to relevance and end a curse bestowed upon the team due to a goat. Yes, according to Cubs lore, a goat has kept them out of the World Series since 1945, which may speak volumes as to why this team is referred to as the “Lovable Losers.”
With Bryant’s arrival as the knight in shining armor so desperately needed on the North Side of the city, it is time to wonder when the Texas Rangers own power hitting third baseman, Joey Gallo, will make his anticipated debut.
