After a severe bout with COVID-19 last summer, Jeremiah Estrada went from opening 2022 in Single-A to making his big-league debut with the Cubs.
“It was definitely one of the scariest moments in my life,” said Ramiro Estrada, Jeremiah’s dad. “It was a scary situation. We were worried. It was unexpected.”
“It was just the worst feeling ever. Lost a lot of weight, felt a lot of pain. Other than just hurting my elbow, it's been the worst pain in my life.” Jeremiah said he spent two weeks in the hospital and didn’t eat. He woke up one day with a light appetite and ate some graham crackers. It earned him his first big-league promotion during the Cubs’ series in Toronto last week as a substitute player. He threw a scoreless inning with a pair of strikeouts and wasOn Tuesday he hosted a group of family and friends at Wrigley Field.
A few days ago, Jeremiah's phone alerted him of a photo he took exactly one year ago, of him and his hospital wristband.
