Nico Hoerner Tops BP’s Cubs Prospect List, New Names Offer Hope for Improving System

This has been a pretty tame offseason in terms of prospect lists, starting with Baseball America and followed shortly thereafter by Prospects Live. Wednesday brought the updated top 10 Cub prospects list ($) from Baseball Prospectus, which tends to take more risks than those from other talent evaluators around baseball. You know, like when they had Addison Russell over Kris Bryant in 2015.

They took a more conservative approach last year with Nico Hoerner and Miguel Amaya at the top and Hoerner again took the top spot this year.
