It is a bit bewildering why a Chicago Cubs team didn’t get into the playoffs. Those players were great. And, Ryne Sandberg came after them and played great at second base too.
But, there was another Cubs player who played at second base and he isn’t as well known as Santo or Sandberg. Glenn Beckert had a great nine-year career with the Cubs. Over the course of his career, he played from 1965-73, in an era of top players.
To note, Willie Mays was on the Giants then Mets.
