At work, hard to follow... Anyone mysteriously slipping who'd
be a coup?

Very hard to get enthused on that one. No power, probably can't
stick at SS, sounds like a RH LaStella.

Nico Hoerner is said to be the consummate team player, who is a
very slick fielder and solid bat. Some scouts say he's the type
of fielder, athlete and personality who could move around the
diamond and add versatility, which is increasingly important
with shifts.
His parents are both teachers...his dad at a distinguished
private school east of San Francisco and his mother on the
faculty at U of California-Berkeley. That he's at Stanford says
something about his intellect, too.
His coaches agree - it's not a matter of IF he gets to the
majors, it's a matter of when.
Of course, after selecting Almora-Bryant-Schwarber-Happ in R1 of
consecutive drafts, we could assume our FO would select a solid
player and person. That the selection before Almora was Javy
Freaking Baez shows that Hendry/Wilken could make a great pick,
too.

Cubs apparently feel they can likely help Hoerner grow toward
the type of power Happ has developed.
