11/16/24 | Chicago Cubs Tied for Most Prospects in Latest Top 100 Update. The Chicago Cubs have begun to build their farm system over the years, and at the top, that has resulted in them sneakily becoming one of the deepest in the league. While the Cubs don't have any players in the top 30, they are tied with the Seattle Mariners for the most prospects on the list with six. Shortstop Jefferson Rojas and outfielder Kevin Alcantara were both listed in the "next 50" section, so while they didn't crack the Top 100 this time, they are players to watch for the next update. Smith was the top draft pick of Chicago last year and his game has translated quicker than anyone expected. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/cubs/news/chicago-cubs-tied... |
