Ah yes, the biannual βwhy isnβt chicago betterβ debate. Itβs a fair question and David is good people + has a good following, so I suspect heβll get some thoughtful responses. https://t.co/Ej1rMRjdJp

Great, underrated career. Especially for the Cubs. And one of the sweetest right handed swings I can remember. 25 WAR, 239 HRs, .293 avg., .878 OPS, and MVP vote getter in 4 seasons during his Cubs career. A-Ram did indeed rock. https://t.co/sk3NKBgx9L
