They are talking about the end of the line for Almora. If they get rid of him before Descalso, something is rotten in Denmark. Descalso should be in class A ball. On top of that we have a 16million dollar joke in the bullpen. He can't find the plate most of the time, and when he does it looks like a grapefruit to the hitter. His credentials were suspect just before the Cubs acquired him. Surely with the hitting coaches of considerable experience should be able to work with Almora, and figure out what he needs to fix. Right now, one of my favorites is in a terrible slump, and is in the lineup every day, Kyle Schwarber.
