Weirdest Cubs' Injuries

Jim SheldonApr 16, 2008

I'm a Chicago Cubs fan.

Having said that, the Cubs have had their fair share of weird injuries over the years. And while all baseball teams have injuries during the season, it seems that the Cubs have some of the wackiest injuries in all of baseball.

With Alfonso Soriano getting injured last night while doing his patented 'hop' while catching a fly ball, I bring you the weirdest Cubs injuries that I can remember

- Kerry Wood Hot Tub Incident - Cubs RP Kerry Wood looked like he was going to come out firing for the 2007 season...until he met the hot tub at his condo in spring training. Wood slipped coming out of the hot tub and soon after went on the disabled list and wasn't heard from until later in the season.

- Felix Pie has Balls -
This one just happened this spring as Cubs OF Felix Pie went down with "twisted testicles". Seriously, how that happens, I don't know.

- Bless you, Sammy -
Towards the end of his tenure with the Cubs, Sammy Sosa wasn't the most likeable guy, and Cubs fans had to get a kick out of it when he went down with back spasms.....because he sneezed too hard before a game.

- Take a Seat, Remlinger -Generally, the locker room is one of the safest place for ballplayers. That wasn't the case for Cubs relief pitcher Mike Remlinger. He flipped over in his Lazy-Boy recliner and hurt his hand during down-time in the clubhouse.

- Carlos Zambrano found the End of the Internet -ย In 2005, Cubs ace Carlos Zambrano was asked/told by the Cubs to stop using the computer so much because it might contribute to elbow issues. Zambrano said he was spending about four hours a day on the computer, e-mailing his family back in Venezuela. But you and I know that there are only so many things you spend that much time on the Internet doing.

- Farnsworth Fans the Flames - Cubs RP Kyle Farnsworth was one of the most volatile players in recent history, and one time took out his frustrations after a poor performance on a metal fan. Farnsworth fought the fan and the fan won.

- Hop to it Alfonso -
Converted OF Alfonso Soriano has never had the steadiest glove in the field, and he scares every Cubs fan when he makes his patented 'hop' when he's about to catch a pop fly. That practice finally hopped up and bit him in theย butt as he went down with a strained right calf last night while performing the 'hop'.

The Cubs are filled to the brim with history.....but as you can see, some of it is obviously not good which might explain why they haven't won a World Series in 100 years.
