Game one of the 2016 World Series wasn't kind to former University of Mississippi Rebel and current Chicago Cubs player Chris Coghlan. In fact, there wasn't much for any member of the Cubs to be excited about after the Cleveland Indians steamrolled them for 6-0 win.

On Tuesday, Oct. 25, Coghlan got to start at right field for game one over struggling outfielder Jason Heyward, a decision that the Cubs hoped would give the offense some punch. That isn't how things worked out as he went 0-2 for batting with two strikeouts. Catcher Wilson Contreras replaced him in the seventh inning.

The Cubs left Coghlan out of the lineup in game two, which took place in Cleveland on Wednesday, Oct. 26, and he didn't play at all in the Cubs 5-1 win to even the series. However, there is still plenty of baseball left to play for the utility player to make his mark in this World Series.

While at East Lake High School in Tarpon Spring, Fla., Coghlan was a standout athlete on both the diamond and the gridiron. He played football for three years at the school and earned a letter for two of those years.

Coghlan truly shined in baseball, though. As a senior, he was named Pinnellas County Player of the Year and Suncoast Player of the Year as a senior, and he led the county with a .573 average, earning first-team All-State. During his time in high school, he was All-County three times and All-Suncoast twice.

The Arizona Diamondbacks drafted him in the 18th round in 2003, but instead of going to the MLB, he decided to attend the University of Mississippi.

At UM, Coghlan was named SEC All-Freshman, starting 54 games at third base. He hit safely in 40 of the 57 games in which he saw action. He improved on that in his sophomore season in 2005, setting a school record for most at-bats with 272, and earning second-team All-SEC honors by coaches' selection and SEBaseball.com .

SEBaseball.com and Baseball America chose Coghlan for first-team All-SEC in his final season in Oxford. He was on the watch list for the 2006 Wallace Award, which is given to the nation's top player, Collegiate Baseball chose him as second-team All-American, and Baseball America selected him as third-team All-American.

In 2006, the Florida Marlins, now the Miami Marlins, drafted Coghlan in the first round with the 36th overall pick. He spent time with the Gulf Coast Marlins, the franchise's rookie squad, and with a now-defunct Single-A team, the Jamestown Jammers. During his first professional season, he hit .297 with five doubles and 15 RBI hits. He was named South Atlantic League All-Star and played in the Futures Game in 2007.

Coghlan also played short stints with the Greensboro Grasshoppers and the Jupiter Hammerheads before he moved up to Double-A Carolina Mudcats in 2008. He made the midseason and postseason Southern League All-Stars, and he finished second in the league in stolen bases and fifth in runs.

He started the 2009 season with the Triple-A New Orleans Zephyrs before the Marlins called him up to the majors. He finished the season as the National League Rookie of the Year and finished 28th in MVP voting.

Coghlan stayed in the majors during the 2010 season, playing in 91 games and batting .268. He played in just 65 games in the following year but batted .230 on the season.

In 2012, his worst season as a big-leaguer, Coghlan batted a meager .140 while appearing in just 39 games for the Marlins. He spent the season split between New Orleans and Miami, as he continued to struggle at the plate.

Coghlan's final season in Miami was 2013. He appeared in 70 games and batted .256. The Marlins then allowed him to become a free agent. The Chicago Cubs signed him in the offseason and brought him up from the Triple-A Iowa Cubs, where he appeared in 125 games, the most since his rookie season, and batted .283.

In 2015, Chicago called Coghlan up for 148 games, during which he batted .250. The Cubs then traded him to the Oakland Athletics before the 2016 season. After batting .146 in 51 games in Oakland, the A's traded him back to the Cubs, where he appeared in 48 games and averaged .252 hitting.

During his major league career, Coghlan has played nearly every position on the field except shortstop. He primarily plays left field but is still looking to see time at pitcher and catcher.

The 2016 World Series shifts from Cleveland to Chicago for game three. Currently, the Indians and Cubs are tied 1-1 in the best-of-seven series. Coverage of game three starts tomorrow night, Friday, Oct. 28, at 7 p.m. on FOX.
