Chicago Cubs Prospect Update: Jeremiah Estrada Just Needs to Stay Healthy at Eugene

Last season was disappointing for Jeremiah Estrada, the Cubs’ sixth round pick in the 2017 draft. After pitching just 6.1 innings in that first partial season, Estrada missed the entire 2018 season with a strained UCL. He avoided surgery, though, and has burst back onto the prospect scene again at short-season Eugene.

Basic Info
Age – 20
Height – 6’1”

2017 6th round pick

On Sunday June 17, Estrada made his 2019 debut pitching in relief for Eugene. It was an odd turn of events to say the least, but there he was as the third pitcher of the game.
