The MLB Draft starts on Sunday, May 17. This is the second in a series of articles on whom the Cubs might take with the seventh pick in the draft.
The first profile was on third baseman Cam Collier. That article also has an overview of this year’s draft, but I’ll repeat that there is probably at least a 95 percent chance the Cubs will take a position player. Why? Because most observers do not think that there is a pitcher in this draft worthy of a Top 10 pick. Maybe the Cubs disagree, but I’m going to concentrate on position players in this series.
