Cubs lead 3 to 2 on a single by Descalso. Bryant taken out
after home run and single.

Cue "Oh, no, he must have hurt his shoulder."

Bryant apparently is a wee bit honked off at people doubting
him.

You may be correct.

@MDGonzales
Bryant, on past and current criticism: "I read one thing and it
just motivates me to either shut that person up or prove them
wrong. I’ve been doing that my entire life, so bring it on."
Jesse Rogers@ESPNChiCubs
Bryant:"When you’re not playing you have a whole lot of time to
just sit there and either go through a twitter rabbit hole and
start seeing things about yourself,or seeing things about ‘trade
him’ and this and that.And I’m like ‘Alright.I’m motivated, keep
‘em coming. Bring it’”

Hard-hit, solid single pulled to left for Kris Bryant as he's
taken out for a pinch-runner. I'm not one to care about spring
stats at all, but seeing KB pull the ball with authority twice
is exactly what people worried about his shoulder need to allay
those fears.

The offensive juggernaut that is the Cubs goes into the late
innings ahead of the hapless Milwaukee Brewers 8 to 2. They are
attempting to establish themselves as the first place team in
the Cactus League.

Oscar de la Cruz coming in to pitch the ninth inning.
Immediately throws a fastball at 96 mph.

He wasn't actually throwing very fast last year, either in camp
or during the season . That was part of the camp story last
year. **IF** he could consistently throw really fast, he might
regain some interest.

More from Kris Bryant, to CUBluejay's point.

@sahadevsharma
KB was asked if he thinks ppl forgot how good he was to start
last season (1.022 OPS in first 38 gms before injury) "Totally.
This game is all about “What have you done for me lately?” And
boy did I get to experience that last year. So... yeah. That’s
all I got to say about that"

Maybe it will be Kris Bryant joining Bryce Harper in a few years
rather than the other way around this year.
