10 BOLD Predictions For The 2017 Chicago Cubs

-

2. KB MVP x2

Bryant would become the first player since 2008-2009 to win the NL MVP award in back to back years when Albert Pujols did it with the St. Louis Cardinals. Bryant had career years in literally every offensive category you can think of (besides triples) in 2016 and he vowed to get even better in 2017.

He made it known this off-season that even though he won the award, there was still a lot of work to do to make him an even better player.

If that doesn’t terrify you, it should.

He’s stated numerous times that he noticed the amount of change ups he saw rose drastically last season so he’s worked hard this off-season to be able to take those pitches to the opposite field.

I see at least a ten point increase to his average and another boost to his power totals (see number 3 on this list.)
