The Original Carmelo

I share a birthday with only one #Cub in history, today's birthday boy Carmelo Martinez. Martinez was a Cub in 1983. It appeared he would be in Chicago for years to come. Instead, he was the centerpiece in the trade that helped the Cubs acquire SP Scott Sanderson. #everyCubever pic.twitter.com/QO2I6kxqvJ
