Kyle Schwarber bristled when his defensive deficiencies in left were mentioned in the first Zoom call he held with reporters in the nation’s capital, after he signed a 1-year/$10M free agent deal in January.
“Everyone likes to look at these numbers and stuff and just bang me on it for some reason,” Schwarber said.
“But I view myself as a good outfielder. You know what ... I’m going to go out there and I’m going to make the play that I need to make. I’m going to play 110%. That’s the way I want to play. I don’t care who’s pitching.
