Chicago Cubs Addison Russell is maturing before our eyes
Addison Russell, who homered twice on Friday, has turned his season around, quickly becoming one of the Chicago Cubs’ most valuable assets.
It’s so easy to look past what Russell has done for Chicago this season; especially when he’s put side-by-side with the likes of Kris Bryant and Kyle Schwarber, who have been an a whole new level when it comes to rookie production this season.
Bryant, who could very well push 100 RBI in his first big league season (despite missing the first two weeks before he was called up from Iowa), has to be considered a front-runner for the National League Rookie of the Year.
