While many may be feeling only doom and gloom is on the horizon going forward for the Chicago Cubs, the team has quietly done a good job restocking the farm since stripping it barren in their recent run of contention. The team still has a ways to go, but there’s plenty to like about the farm system now, and if they truly commit to selling at the coming deadline, the team could be in for a 2016-2017 Yankees-like turnaround.
The Cubs have a very toolsy farm, with most of the team’s prospects being more potential driven than finished products, and this rings true with their top prospects as well.
