Can Cubs Daniel Descalso bounce back in 2020?

One could easily forget that Daniel Descalso was a member of the 2019 Chicago Cubs. Descalso (33) was signed to a two-year, $5 million deal before the 2019 season. At first, it seemed like a decent fit, a versatile veteran utility man who had solid on-base numbers the previous three seasons.

His first year as a Cub ended up being a disaster, slashing .173/.271/.250 with a .521 OPS in 82 games. His fWAR on the season was -0.8. The beginning of the season was actually pretty good for him when he slashed .263/.349/.408 in his first 24 games.
