With Adbert Alzolay’s stunning debut performance, it looks like the Cubs may have finally produced a pitcher from their own farm system who looks like he could possibly stick in the majors. Yes, it is only one game, but based on Alzolay’s track record, he has the pitches and the wherewithal to hang around.
But one pitcher does not a successful system make, so who is next in line to make it to Chicago?
1. Dillon Maples
Clearly possessed of the most impressive arsenal of pitches out of all the guys in the system, he’s flashed at times in Chicago and he has also bombed.
