Cool Names Cubs	All Time Best Names Cub Starting Lineup		Cool Names Cubs
Pitcher	Mordecai (Three Finger)	Any Cub fan knows who Mordecai is And any Sox fan knows who Three Finger is!
Pitcher	Heathcliff Slocumb	A weird first name combined with an unusual last name . . . . . . makes for one of the best names in recent baseball history!
Catcher	Gabby Hartnett	One of the most beloved of all Cub nicknames! Just right for a man who talks to umps and batters on the job
First Base	Hee-Seop Choi	His first name has a hyphen! That's a rarity! Cool, too! What do you call him for short? Hee? Hee hee?
Second Base	Footsie Blair	Why Footsie? His baseball skills? Political skills? Shoe size? Did he get it as a kid or after he reached the big leagues?
Shortstop	Mister Cub	He earned his title by hitting homers, winning MVP awards. . . . . . and saying-- in his upbeat fashion-- "Let's play two!"
Third Base	Aramis Ramirez	Say his name three times in a row-- it's tough to do. Plus Ram is short for both his first and last names!
Left Field	Kiki Cuyler	Most people say "key key" but in his day they said "ky ky" Either version sounds good with Cuyler. Great name!
Center Field	Dode Paskert	Is his first name two syllables or one? We don't know, Dode! "Doad" or "doad ee" it's a great off-the-wall name!
Right Field	Andy Pafko	Scouts heard his name and thought sounds like a ballplayer! The fans called him Handy Andy, and he was!
