"Even if you ignore everything else he does so well/offers this organization - leadership, stability, availability, work ethic - Dansby Swanson has simply been a very valuable addition to this Cubs team, made more apparent when he's batting lower in the order without any expectation of carrying the offense."
"On the whole, there are only 21 batters with more home runs than Swanson's five, and only three of those players are shortstops: CJ Abrams (6), Gunnar Henderson (6), and Elly De La Cruz (6)."
"Starting on April 7 (the second game of the Rays series), Dansby Swanson has stepped up to the plate 51 times. And in that stretch, he has more individual hits (10) and walks (9) than he does strikeouts (8)."
Dansby Swanson has proven to be a crucial addition to the Cubs, contributing not only defensively but also offensively. Despite a slow start, he has recently excelled, hitting five home runs and achieving a strong slugging percentage. His performance has improved significantly since early April, where he has recorded more hits and walks than strikeouts. Swanson's leadership and work ethic further enhance his value to the team, making him a key player in their lineup.
