That is cool! Maybe he'll have a good chance of making the roster!

They're sending him down to the minors for a little while for contractual reasons (If he misses something like 12 games this season, they'll control him for another entire year later on). But the consensus is that the day that's up (April 17th, I believe), he'll be brought up to the majors.

Sad thing is, he's in the NL and the only stadium close to me is Fenway, so unless we get a Cubs/Red Sox World Series, I won't be seeing him play in person.

Sorry to hear that he was sent down. Interesting story: http://www.si.com/mlb/2015/04/02/chicago-cubs-kris-bryant-minors-disappointed

The Player's Association called his demotion "a sad day for baseball." http://www.si.com/mlb/2015/03/30/chicago-cubs-kris-bryant-minors-mlbpa

You may be able to see him in Fenway at some point, due to interleague play. The Cubs actually played the Red Sox at Fenway last year. Unfortunately, they don't this year. Looking at the Cubs schedule, the closest you'll get is when the Cubs play the Mets at Shea in Queens, NY from June 30 - July 2.

Sorry to hear about Kris Bryant being sent down to the minors. Possibly, could this be the results of him being brought up too soon to the Majors?!? Good news, I suppose, is at least he's still in MLB, not in the Show, but still in MLB. Hopefully, he'll get his chance again when the time is right!!

GO YANKEES!!
