Kris Bryant confirms he has recovered from shoulder problem

Chicago Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant spent a lot of 2018 hindered by a shoulder problem, but that is now behind him.

Bryant said Monday that his shoulder is fully healthy and he is back to his normal swing after battling issues last season.

Bryant confirmed he is fully over his shoulder injury and said he's back to his typical 1-handed swing.

"I've been a really dang good baseball player with that swing my whole life. I was looking at me when I was 8 years old and I swung the same way."

Bryant missed a lot of time with that shoulder injury that just kept lingering even as he tried to come back from it. It affected his output as well. He hit .272 with 13 home runs in 102 games, and hopes to be much better and fully healthy in 2019.
