Mark Zagunis, Carlos Pimentel net Cubs minor league monthly honors

On Friday, the Cubs named Mark Zagunis the organization's minor league player of the month for June and tabbed Carlos Pimentel as the pitcher of the month.

Mark Zagunis doesn't get a lot of pub in the Cubs system, overshadowed by top prospects like Kyle Schwarber and Carl Edwards Jr.

But Zagunis is a nice under-the-radar player for the Cubs, putting up very good numbers since being selected in the third round of the 2014 MLB Draft.

Zagunis, 22, entered play Friday with a career .303/.436/.446 slash line in 126 minor-league games with 31 doubles, seven homers, 25 steals and a stellar 94:84 walk:strikeout ratio.
