Cubs having fun watching 'Fast Hulk' Schwarber do his thing

The "Fast Hulk" has taken the Cubs lineup to a whole new level.

Addison Russell's nickname for Kyle Schwarber is oddly fitting, especially the way Schwarber has been mashing at the plate and chasing fly balls down in his new position in left field.

"He runs or moves better than he looks," Cubs manager Joe Maddon said. "He doesn't have the speedster look to him, but he moves well."

The Cubs have won 10 of their last 11 games, averaging 4.73 runs per contest in that stretch.
