The teams needs a left fielder and President Dave Dombrowski said Sunday ownership hasn’t given him any limitations on spending money."I think all three are winners," Harper said during a 10-minute chat with reporters in front of his locker. "I think they’ve proven that.
Schwarber, of course, he won in Chicago, did a great job for the Red Sox last year, and the Nationals. He’s a winner as a player.
KB can play everywhere, third base, first base, DH, left field. He’s a winner as well, and he’s done that. He’s come up in big spots, big situations.
