Cardinals 6, Cubs 3: Seiya Suzuki is ready for the season

Spring Training results don’t mean much. This, we all know.

Cubs right fielder Seiya Suzuki sure wishes they did, though. He hit two homers and likely finished his spring season with six of them and a 1.593 OPS. This is how he was hitting in August and September last year and we sure hope it carries over. If so, Suzuki’s an MVP candidate.

The Cubs, however, fell to the Cardinals 6-3 in the first of two exhibition games against their division rivals at Sloan Park.
