  • David Theodore Swartzbaugh is a former Major League Baseball pitcher who played from 1995 to 1997 for the Chicago Cubs. This 6'2", 195 pound right-hander was originally drafted by the Cubs in the 9th round (224th overall) of the 1989 draft. He was used both as a starter and reliever in the minors, and saw success in both roles. For example, in 1991 with the Winston-Salem Spirits (now the Warthogs), he went 10-4 with a 1.83 ERA as a starter. As a reliever in 1995 with the Iowa Cubs, he went 3-0 with a 1.53 ERA in 30 relief appearances. He made his big league debut on September 3, 1995 at the age of 27 against the Atlanta Braves. He was perfect in the 2/3rd's of an inning that made up his debut. He did well in his first year in the Majors, no matter how short it was-in seven relief appearances, he did not give up a single earned run and struck out five in 7 1/3rds innings. Alas, that success did not carry over. The Cubs tried using him as a starter in 1996, and that experiment failed--in 6 games (5 started), he posted a 6.38 ERA in 24 innings of work. He only struck out 13 while walking 14. They tried using him as a starter again in 1997, but that failed too. He went 0-1 in 8 innings of work, which totaled two games started. After his final major league game on April 22, 1997, Swartzbaugh stuck around in the minors until 1999. Overall, Swartzbaugh went 0-3 in 39+ innings of work with a 5.72 career ERA. He struck out 22 and walked 24. He was 0 for 10 at the plate.
