Michael Canter

Lead Writer

Michael is a Chicago-born and raised Cubs fan recently transplanted to Milwaukee to be closer to his father-in-law and stepdaughters. A Cubs fan since 1969, Michael used to attend games as a guest of the Wrigley’s, who contracted Michael’s father from 1965-1977 to help players with insurance, annuities, and off-season employment. As a Little Leaguer he was referred to as ‘Baby Kingman’ for his propensity to strike out swinging, walk or hit a towering home run with each at-bat. Despite so many heroes in 2016, his all-time favorite Cubs’ player is still Kerry Wood.

Michael is the writer of the daily Rundown series here on Cubs Insider. He has been writing for CI since 2014 and now contributes regularly as a member of the CI team. You can read all of his contributions to Cubs Insider here.
