5 longtime Chicago Cubs who looked odd in other uniforms

#4 Phil Cavarretta - Chicago White Sox

Boasting the sixth-most games played in a Cubs uniform, Phil Cavarretta called the North Side home from 1934-1953. In that span, he slashed .292/.371/.416 with 1,927 hits and only 585 strikeouts in 7,511 plate appearances. He was also the National League MVP in 1945. In 1951 he became the player/manager of the team.

In the Spring of 1954, Cavarretta was fired by Cubs owner P.K. Wrigley. Apparently, Cavarretta did not give a glowing assessment of his team's chances, so Wrigley canned him. Cavarretta would then sign with the Chicago White Sox that May and the Cubs replaced him with Stan Hack.

Cavarretta would play with the White Sox from 1954-1955 and hit .309/.408/.401 in 77 games. All of his 50 hits, 26 walks, and 24 RBI came in 1954. In 1955 he went hitless for six games and was eventually released by the Sox in May. That would spell the end of Cavarretta's MLB playing career.

Roughly 97% of Cavarretta's plate appearances came in a Cubs uniform, and 3% in a White Sox uniform.
