Over the last couple of years, I’ve posted articles here commemorating Cubs who played in just one game for the team, from 1970-2009 and during the 2010s.
With the Cubs using a MLB record 69 players during the 2021 season — and 47 in the abbreviated 60-game pandemic 2020 season! — I thought I’d take a look at this again, and indeed, there are five men, four of them pitchers, who appeared in just one game for the Chicago Cubs franchise in those two years.
A reminder that this is for players playing just one game for the Cubs — most of them have also played for other MLB teams.
