Who am I missing that has a diamond card in The Show 20? Has to have played for Cubs MLB at least one game.
Banks Bryant Baez Rizzo Castillanos Happ Billy Williams Kingman Sandberg Nico Hoerner
Dawson Daniel Murphy Lou Brock Hayward
Darvish Kyle Hendricks Alec Mills Kerry Wood Greg Maddox Arrieta Fergie Lester Prior
Eckersley Kimbrel Dan Plesac Lee Smith Chapman Sutter Wade Davis
Looks like you got them all. Maybe a Carlos Zambrano Cap should be added tho

Good idea.

Tbf I feel like using guys like this ruins the point of doing an all time team but go for it.
Benito Santiago. You gotta have a catcher and he is the only one that works

I agree. Not sure why Eck is on that list. I remember him well.

Cap is a fine option too. Just name him Geovanny Soto. But yeah benito played there in 1999

Yes 1999. Not sure why I didn’t know that. Full Season too.
Or Randy Hundley. He wasn’t a very good hitter but managed an all star appearance and one gold glove. Right now I am using a variation of my own name that the announcer actually knows and speaks.
Juan Pierre Kenny Lofton Mark Prior
There is Jody Davis and Gabby Hartnett too. Gabby being the best Cubs catcher of all time.
@Flyboy19 said in Cubs - All Time Team:
I have Prior and forgot to list him. The other two are good ones though Like Lou Brock it just feels icky to use Lofton lol.
Juan Pierre had a really good season with the Cubs. Wonder why they traded him. Free agency maybe?
So now, since all these players can’t make the squad, who does? “Gabby Hartnett” CAP wins at catcher, if for no other reason that I do not have Benito, and my CAP is probably better. I am not spending over 200 k for a 91 Pierre. All others can make the team. The only other player that I do not already have is Arietta, but he is a must have and I will get him eventually so he takes up a SP spot.
I use a all cubs team as well. I Use jimmy fox at catcher. Jim Edmonds in left, Brock and Dawson in center. Carlos Gonzalez and Bryant platoon rf . Happ and candelario play 3rd banks ss hornsby lemahieu 2b. McGriff castellanos 1b. My bench I mix and match using Hayward billy Williams baez sandberg lofton Pierre Murphy zobrist joe Carter nico kingman rizzo cliff floyd. Pitching I go arrieta darvish hamels Maddux wood. I also use mills Lester Hendricks and Jenkins. Relief I use goose lee smith sutter Kimbrel eckersley Chapman Davis. I also will throw plesac and kintzler and Rodney in if my pen is drained.
Good thing there isnt a Milton Bradley card.
Williams LF Dawson CF Castillanos RF Bryant 3B Banks SS Hornsby 2B Rizzo 1B "Gabby" CAP Catcher
Bench... Baez Happ Daniel Murphy Kingman Sandberg
SP... Arrieta Darvish Maddux Wood Mills
RP... Eck Lee Smith Sutter Kimbrel Chapman Davis Plesac
I decided to leave out guys who played poorly while with the Cubs (Brock), or played for the Cubs at the end of their careers for just a short time (Foxx). So Brock, Foxx, CarGo, Edmonds, etc are out. Hamels, Lester, Hendricks, Jenkins, Kintzler, Prior, and Hayward did not make the team, for now, but I will sub them in. I do not have Goose or Zobrist. I did not realize Hornsby played so well for the Cubs (MVP in 1929) and for several years. He easily made the team.

Cole Hamels
Jason Kendall at catcher is an option
