Team Confirms Sammy Sosa Returning to CubsCon

It was really just a formality given the Cubs’ reconciliation with superstar-turned-pariah Sammy Sosa, especially with Tom Ricketts extending a Cubs Convention invite in a statement last week, but the official announcement was nice nonetheless. The team officially announced in a Sunday morning email that Slammin’ Sammy will indeed be in attendance at the annual event being held January 17-19 at the Sheraton Grand Chicago.

My sense from the start had been that Ricketts would not have included the invitation had this not already been in the works, and I’m also wondering whether we’ll get an announcement about Sosa being inducted into the Cubs Hall of Fame.
