Question Do you know the name of the cub short stop with the initials C.D. and when he played. I was at a charity event when this young looking african-american was introduced as a chicago cub player (former). Can you let me know.
Answer Hi Lori,
Thanks for writing.
The Cubs have only had a handful of players with the initials CD play for them. The only one who played during the past 60 years though is Courtney Duncan in 2001-2002, but he was a pitcher, not a shortstop.
The player you are describing sounds like long-time Cub shortstop Shawon Dunston. He was the Cubs shortstop from 1985 to 1997.
