In 2014, the Taiwanese pitcher came to the Chicago Cubs and impressed immediately. Jen-Ho Tseng posted a 6-1 record with a 2.40 ERA. His WHIP was 0.867 while he pitched 105 innings in his first season. It earned him the minor league pitcher of the year. He’d win that award again in 2017 and would get his Major League debut just a day later after receiving the award at Wrigley Field. This is where the proverbial wheels fall off. Like, pop off and roll into oncoming traffic.
Tseng was tabbed by Joe Maddon to start the Spring Training opener.
