Nick Madrigal’s first season at third base has given the Cubs a reliable defender whose advanced metrics rate him as one of the best at the position in the majors.
Sometimes Chicago Cubs third baseman Nick Madrigal will watch replays of his defensive plays to try to take in all the different angles.
“The more and more balls I get over there, I’m just starting to figure out my style of play over there at third base,” Madrigal told the Tribune. “It definitely feels good to be able to do things for the team. But it’s still a work in progress. I’m still working every day on my early work and things like that, but it definitely feels good to be able to make those plays and just get more action over there.
