You may have missed it while wallowing in the Cubs’ second straight shutout, but minor league rosters were announced Monday. No big surprises, though it’s always good to see how the organization has decided to set up its young talent. And given the renewed focus on pitching development, it’s particularly interesting to see where the arms are distributed.
South Bend is particularly loaded, with a staff highlighted by teen phenom Jose Albertos and former top draft pick Brendon Little. The low-A affiliate will also be home to Javier Assad, Cory Abbot, and Jesus Camargo, among others.
