In the 2018 season, 990 players had at least one plate appearance; 799 players had a pitching appearance.
Today, we’re narrowing it down to one.
Who are the Cubs who can claim to be the only player in the Majors in 2018 to accomplish something? I’m going to answer that question right here with eleven examples.

Jon Lester. 18 Wins, 9 RBI in 2018
Sixty-two pitchers tossed at least 160 innings in 2018… one did so without throwing a wild pitch.
