Will Kris Bryant Homer In His First Major League At Bat?

Kris Bryant is scheduled to make his major league debut today against the San Diego Padres, against all star James Shields. Bryant has the opportunity to join a list of 7 Chicago Cubs and 117 MLB players who hit a home run in their first at bat.  Although the odds are slim, it’s fun to speculate on just how good Bryant will be, and whether or not he can join these fellow Cubs as number 118.

Paul Gillespie (C)was the first to Cub to hit a homerun in his first major league at bat.
