Why? Because it seems like it's the thing to do with some people. Just throw out a name of some prospect who is doing well and say, for god knows why, that he should be with the Cubs in 2014. At least two idiots have suggested Kris Bryant open the 2014 season with the Cubs.
This idiotic idea was brought to you by them.

Alex Jackson should be the Cubs starting Catcher in June 2014.

Yellon is arguing in the comments that keeping Rizzo down last year to get an extra arb year and avoid Super 2 wasn’t worth it. Holy shit.

One little RT of this post from Keith Law has the traffic jumping on this post, and judging from the replies here and on Twitter, at least half of the people who clicked over think this is a serious opinion, which is, of course, ridiculous.
Everybody knows that Eloy Jimenez will be blocked in RF next year by Brett Jackson.

Calling people idiotic for suggesting that Bryant would open season shows a lot of knowledge on the writer’s part. While he likely will not open, it would not be strange to see him with the Cubs sometime in 2014.
He was the college Golden Spikes winner and named Player of the Year by Baseball America.
Of the last ten guys who won those honors… almost all were in MLB the following year.
