Cubs manager David Ross said Wednesday that three-time All-Star Kris Bryant will bat leadoff ahead of the 2020 regular season.
"You'll see him at the top of the order a whole lot in spring training," Ross said. "Kris Bryant is a really good at-bat, gets on base, is probably one of our best baserunners. His baseball IQ is extremely high. When you talk about putting the best players at the top of the order, I want to put him at the top."
The Cubs ranked last in the majors in on-base percentage last season after ranking No.
