The Chicago Cubs‘ Jon Lester has had his “safety blanket” in David Ross for much of the last few years. From Boston to Chicago, Ross was there for Lester. Now with his retirement, the Cubs need to find a new solution behind the plate for him. Willson Contreras and Miguel Montero head the list, with Kyle Schwarber in the mix as well. Will the loss of Ross be harmful to Lester’s game?
Jason Heyward had a miserable year at the plate, posting career-worsts in many stats.
