Schwarber Admits Catching Days Are Over, Which Could Spur Overall Improvement
You might have missed it at the end of a piece that was focused on Kyle Schwarber gushing about Yu Darvish, but the erstwhile catcher basically admitted that his days behind the plate are over. Though he sort of soft-pedaled it, Schwarber seems to have come around to what the Cubs themselves have known for a long time.
“I think those days might be done,” Schwarber told the Tribune’s Mark Gonzalez when asked about getting a different look at his new teammate. “I might wander my way back there and see what it looks like from a catcher’s point of view.”
