Cubs' Russell tears up thinking about 2016 accomplishments (Yahoo Sports)

Addison Russell was laying on his mom's bed in the house he bought the family in Pensacola, Florida, with his signing bonus. ''That's when all the memories from this past year, from spring training to the middle of the season, then the World Series run,'' the Chicago Cubs shortstop recalled. The 23-year-old Russell, acquired in the July 2014 trade that sent Jeff Samardzija to Oakland, made his Cubs debut in April 2015.
