The Comeback Kids: An all-time Cubs team of players who left and returned

Ronald Torreyes is back. Well actually, he never played in a Major League game for the Cubs (he made his debut with the Dodgers), but at the very least it’s an excuse to roll out the all-time* team of Cubs who left the team, played elsewhere^ and returned. Here we go...

*1900 to present. Apologies to Fred Pfeffer.

^The term “played elsewhere” disqualifies Ryne Sandberg, who didn’t play at all in 1995.

Catcher: Randy Hundley (1966-73, 1976-77)

Fan favorite Hundley caught 160 games in 1968 (!!), spent 1974 with the Twins and 1975 with the Padres before playing a combined 15 games for the Cubs to close out his career in 1976-77.
