| News | ||
| Kyle Schwarber won't be the Cubs' sole DH, and the team plans to rotate players through the position instead. Brad Camara Mon, Jun 29th | ||
| Kyle Schwarber looks to be the starting left-fielder regularly this season. He offers power and patience at the plate to go with a very strong arm in the field. Jamie Mellor Sun, Mar 8th | ||
| Notes | ||
| Schwarber had a fantastic year, but there are some concerns about him platooning in a shortened season against lefties. Michael Waterloo - FantasyPros | Maybe it's the age, but I'm blaming his 2019 on injuries. He was just too good in 2018 not to give him a second chance this year. Michael Waterloo - FantasyPros | |
| There has been some hype fatigue on Schwarber so you can now get him in the 13th round even though he jacked 38 homers with 92 RBIs last season. In fact, the batting average even leaped up to .250 and is projected to remain there for the 2020 season. Bobby Sylvester - FantasyPros | If you get into the 14th round and need either steals or batting average, Cain will make for an excellent investment. He should again steal 15-20 bags and you can expect the batting average to jump back up closer to that .300 mark he sat at for 4 of the past 6 seasons. Bobby Sylvester - FantasyPros | |
| Real breakout potential here. Schwarber was a stud in the second half of last season and certainly has the potential to keep Michael Petropoulos - BRoto Fantasy | ||
