Timeline
In 132 games, Almora finished the season with a .298 batting average, eight home runs, and 46 RBIs. He also changed the name on the back of his jersey from 'Almora Jr.' to just 'Almora.’
Almora opened the 2019 season on Chicago's 25-man roster.
Tragedy followed triumph for Almora. Almora, a star center fielder for the Mater Academy of Hialeah Gardens, took the USA under-18 squad team to a gold medal at the Pan-American championships. With a gold medal and an MVP award, Almora returned home. But his grandmother, Tomasa Sosa, had died one day after he left for Cartagena, unknown to him. One day before he returned, his grandfather, Juan Sosa, also died. The Sosas lived with Almora and his parents. On his return, Almora was told of the deaths. Almora broke down in tears; at his grandparents' viewing, he placed his gold medal in his grandfather's casket. Afterward, Almora shared that Baseball America ranked him 10th, and he received a scholarship from the University of Miami.
Almora chose "Tico" as his nickname for the Players Weekend during the 2017 and 2018 season. He says that the nickname was given to him as a child for his rowdy nature.
Almora was promoted to the Cubs on June 7, 2016 when Jorge Soler was placed on the disabled list. He made his first career start in left field on June 8, 2016 against the Philadelphia Phillies and on his first fielding opportunity threw out a runner at home to complete a double play. The following day, he got his first major league hit.
On November 2, 2016, in Game 7 of the 2016 World Series, Almora took over as a pinch runner for Kyle Schwarber, the Cubs designated hitter who opened the top of the 10th inning with a lead-off single to right. Almora advanced to second base on a rare tag-up play from first base thanks to a deep fly ball out hit by Kris Bryant. After Cleveland Indians pitcher Bryan Shaw intentionally walked Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo, Almora scored the go-ahead 7th run for the Cubs off of a double by Ben Zobrist. The Cubs went on to win the game 8-7, earning their first World Series victory since 1908 thanks in part to Almora's baserunning skill.
Almora married former Philadelphia 76ers and Philadelphia Flyers dancer Krystal Gregorio on July 21, 2016. Their first child, a son named A.J., was born in August 2016.
Almora spent 2015 back with the Smokies where he batted .272 with six home runs and 46 RBIs in 106 games. He began 2016 with the Iowa Cubs. [1] At Iowa prior to being called up, he was batting .318 in 54 games.

He was the final out of the 2018 NL Wild Card Game against Colorado, struck out by Scott Oberg to end the 13 inning, 2–1 Rockies victory.
The Chicago Cubs selected Almora in the first round, with the sixth overall selection, in the 2012 Major League Baseball Draft out of Mater Academy Charter School.

In 2014, he played for the Daytona Cubs and Tennessee Smokies where he slashed .270/.291/.392 with nine home runs and 60 RBIs in 125 games.
