Sunday Name That Cub

Perhaps I'll finally stump you with this one, which was sent to me by BCB reader Aaron Davis, who took it himself.

Clues: he was a Cub for two seasons -- and the uniform itself should be a clue.

What does that jersey say, anyway? Cuba?

Probably Not....

I don’t remember his first name, last name Hubbard? Was a catcher???

Probably Not....pt. 2

I thought of this name after reading someone else’s guess….what about another former catcher that I can’t remember his first name, last name Pratt? (Mark Pratt maybe???)

Mark Parent....maybe?

Link

He was on the 1994 team that wore the uniform and played parts of 2 seasons with the Cubs. What leads me away from him are the sunglasses in the photo- a catcher wouldn’t have shades propped up on his hat like that.

NOPE pt. 2...

I was thinking of Todd Pratt and he only played a single season with the Cubs, ’95.

I believe

you are thining of Trenidad Hubbard. He was only with the Cubs for a year – the last year of his career if I remember correct.

NOPE

I was thinking of Mike Hubbard, and he played 3 seasons with the Cubs: ’95, ’96 & ’97.

How about

Mark Parent.

What about

Rey Sanchez?

That's what I thought

But Sanchez was a Cub for several years. Is it Jose Guzman?

Eddie Zambrano.
I'll 2nd Eduado Zambrano
Looks pretty close

It would be helpful to see more than half of his face, though.
What about

Ramon Martinez …

that was my guess

I think that uni is a bit early for the Dusty days though

Mike Perez?

It’s either him or Eddie Zambrano, who’s mentioned above.

DINGDINGDING!!!

We have a winner. It’s Mike Perez, who I had almost forgotten even played for the Cubs.

AL YOUR RIGHT .........

Back to the Motor City Mess LIONS went 0-16 …..Maybe the Ford family will take the fan’s serious now …..Gotta have some big changes .

The 1976 Tampa Bay Buccanears gotta put away their champagne, their elusive record of going the season defeated is no more thanks to the Lions!

Meh, with the Bears season over, its gonna be a boring two months
The Bears have only themselves to blame.

If they hadn’t pissed away the Atlanta game, they’d be getting ready for a playoff game.

Or for that matter...

…the Carolina game that we led 17-0 and ended up losing 20-17. We could’ve very well ended the season 11-5, but those two games along with today’s and Green Bay’s last week proved we’d have never succeeded in the postseason whatsoever.

Ahh well, ’least the Hawks are giving me something to enjoy in the gap between football season and baseball season…

As long as we're mentioning blown games ...

don’t forget the Tampa Bay game.

Amazing, how much went the Bears’ way this year, and still they didn’t make the playoffs.

How bout

how bout frank castillo?

LOL

I think my favorite aspect of these posts is the people who don’t bother to read the thread and submit an answer after the puzzle has been solved.
