Oh no here goes his decline. The SI jinx has now started :lol:

Nice! I was wondering why there were some SI pictures of Castro on Getty Images. Does anyone know the last time a Cub was on the cover?

Nice to see you still post here man. To answer your question, I'd have to guess wood or prior were each on it at least once when they were coming up.

Can't get much worse than he has been lately. He was on fire then died out fast.

Off the type of my head

Piniella and Soriano were on the cover back in 2007. I am pretty sure Fukodome was on the cover at one point in time (2009 or 2010?), but that may have only been the Japanese edition.

***edited to add***

I guess I was beaten to the punch!

Great Castro cover. I think Aramis Ramirez is the last Cub on the cover, back in 2008 when the Cubs were rolling during the regular season.

Sweet cover, I might have to pick one up.
