Schoop's offensive surge could raise profile at MLB trade deadline
It’s hard to be jokey and light during Zoom interviews. No matter how you try to soften things, the player is sitting in front of a screen, staring into a camera with a bunch of reporters asking questions — it always feels like an interrogation.

Jonathan Schoop was asked before the game Thursday if his neck and shoulders were sore?
He looked quizzically back at the camera.
“You know, from carrying the offense for about the last month,” he was told.
“No,” he laughed. “I’m good.”
