With many of the big-name prospects now at Wrigley, I have to admit that the minor leagues had been getting short shrift here at Cubs Insider. But with new addition Sagar Sheth putting out weekly MiLB updates, and a group of writers dedicated to individual affiliate beats, that should change in short order.

Gunther Dabynsky even wrote Tuesday about the already-fading glory of the Cubs’ system following the matriculation of Jorge Soler, Kris Bryant, and Addison Russell.
