Kris Bryant Named Baseball’s Best Third Baseman
I mean, Chicago Cubs fans have always known this, right? Well now MLB Network has made it official, Kris Bryant is the top third baseman in the game today. During the MLB Network’s “Top 10 Right Now” look at the hot corner, The Shredder list named Kris Bryant as the top third baseman in the game.
Here is the full list:
1. Kris Bryant
2. Nolan Arenado
3. Josh Donaldson
4. Justin Turner
5. Anthony Rendon
6. Adrian Beltre
7. Jose Ramirez
8. Manny Machado
9. Alex Bregman
10. Kyle Seager
Kris does so much right on the baseball field. Hits for average, hits for power, has speed, takes the extra base, can beat out an infield hit, and can stretch a single into a double. He might also be the only guy in baseball that could have done this.
And this play was one of the fastest first to home times in the game in 2017.
This isn’t all though. Bryant, although not as defensively talented as guys like Machado or Arenado, can still dig it at the hot corner. He is also used all around the diamond (yes, not considered in this poll). There might be “better” third basemen, but there are very many better baseball players.
