Cubs set World Series Roster

In News And Rumors by dmick8925 Comments

The Cubs have set their World Series roster and Kyle Schwarber is on it. Whether or not that’s a good idea, it’s fantastic news for Schwarber and the Cubs future. I personally don’t mind it. Rob Z. was left off the roster and that’s a good trade off in my opinion. Schwarber won’t get enough plate appearances to know whether or not this was a good or bad idea, but it won’t stop people from suggesting it based on the small sample of a few games worth of at bats. Here’s the roster:

PITCHERS (11)

Jon Lester
Jake Arrieta
Kyle Hendricks
John Lackey
Aroldis Chapman
Pedro Strop
Hector Rondon
Carl Edwards Jr.
Justin Grimm
Mike Montgomery
Travis Wood

CATCHERS (3)

David Ross
Willson Contreras
Miguel Montero

INFIELDERS (5)

Anthony Rizzo
Javier Baez
Addison Russell
Kris Bryant
Ben Zobrist

OUTFIELDERS (6)

Dexter Fowler
Jason Heyward
Albert Almora Jr.
Chris Coghlan
Jorge Soler
Kyle Schwarber

    It’s a terrible idea until he hits a moonshot HR in his first AB, and then it’s a genius idea that I’m glad I thought of.

    I think we should pause for a moment and think about the fact that OV titled an article “Cubs set World Series roster” and we were dead fucking serious.

    The 2013 Chicago Cubs: Because we have to
    The 2016 Chicago Cubs: Fuck yeah, patient motherfuckers
