WATCH: ESPN feature on Kyle Schwarber

---

Chicago Cubs outfielder Kyle Schwarber has lost a reported forty pounds this offseason as he tries to have a major bounce-back year in 2018.

ESPN released a short video of some of the workouts that he was doing to prepare for the season.

During the interview, Schwarber said that he wants to be in the running for MVP and Gold Gloves awards in the future.

"Those are high standards (awards). I want to be one of the best baseball players and help the Chicago Cubs win some ballgames," he said.
