EDITOR’S NOTE: This is the first in an occasional series about past Cubs seasons, a profile of a random player from the chosen year.
The Cubs offseason has begun, and as winter draws closer, we thought it might be fun to look back on Cubs seasons past, and remember some lesser-known and unexpected Cubs players. Over the winter, we’ll be picking a season (starting at 1960) and selecting a player many might have forgotten all about. Let’s play “Remember him?”
1960 Cubs
Record: 60-94
Standing: 7th in the National League
Manager(s): Charlie Grimm and Lou Boudreau
The 1960 season isn’t one too worthy of remembering.
