Quote:Joc, we hardly knew ye. Best spring training player weve had in years.Joc did rake in spring trading but lots of AAAA players did the same over the years e.g. Amora, litany of homegrown players manning third basemen between Santo and Bryant, etc.
Joc was not the high contact - with some HR power - lead off hitter with better D than Schwarber at 70% of Schwarbers salary that Cubs were hoping when signed. He is a high energy, good clubhouse guy who was a good streaky hitter with passable D.
Awaiting the year when the Cubs outfield can regularly provide offensive spark
