As criticism mounts toward the end of the largest contract in Cubs’ history, Jason Heyward perseveres, focuses on “being where my feet are.”
Heyward knows as well as anyone on Twitter he’s the elephant in the lineup.
As for what he actually hears, what people at the ballpark or those around town who recognize him are saying, “Thank you. They say, ‘Thank you.’ “ “I can’t control any of that. I can never control that,” Heyward said. “From my first day playing [in the big leagues] at 20 years old or playing right now at 32 years old, I understand I can’t control that.
Hoyer, the leadership guy making decisions, reiterated Wednesday morning on the Kap & J. Hood show on ESPN 1000 what he told reporters in New York when Heyward was back in the lineup after outfielder Clint Frazier was designated for assignment. But also this: “I will say for Jason, this guy could not be more important for developing our young players, mentoring our guys,” Hoyer said, echoing the sentiment, almost word for word from that day in New York. “It’s really rare to see players that are really willing and that take the time to mentor those guys. There is value in that.
