Cubs Rumors: Former prospect Eric Jokisch eyes MLB return

After playing two seasons in the Korean Baseball Organization, former Chicago Cubs pitcher Eric Jokisch is considering a return to the big leagues, as reported by FanSided.com writer Robert Murray.

A native of Springfield, Illinois, Jokisch was drafted in the 11th round in 2010 by the Chicago Cubs. The left-hander made his MLB-debut in 2014 for the Cubs and appeared in just four games. In those four contests, including one start, he worked to a 1.88 ERA in 14 1/3 innings, striking out 10 and walking four.
