His time with the Cubs may be over, but Kyle Schwarber’s legacy will endure.
Regardless of where you stand on Kyle Schwarber as a ballplayer, his tenure as a Cub, or whether it was a mistake to non-tender him, one thing cannot be argued: the powerful slugger provided some iconic moments for Chicago Cubs fans.
Schwarber was a larger than life figure in Chicago and in all of baseball for his titanic blasts, throwback look and miraculous feats. While he may not have lived up to the hype or potential many (myself included) thought he would achieve in Chicago, no one will ever be able to take away the fact that the guy helped the Cubs win a World Series in Willis Reed-style.
