Cubs’ first base job belongs to LaHair — for now
MESA, Ariz. (MCT) — Top prospect Anthony Rizzo may be the first baseman of the Cubs’ future, but Bryan LaHair has the job for the time being.
How long he keeps it is up to the 29-year-old LaHair, who is under pressure to repeat his minor league success at the major league level. He knows there will be skeptics who believe he’s an inexpensive, short-term solution on a team waiting to go with the more highly touted prospect, but LaHair is confident he can stick around a while.
