Were it not for a few significant trades last winter and this, Chicago could have had 10-11 prospects in the current MLB Pipeline Top 100 Prospect List.

Even so, Hoyer and VP of scouting Dan Kantrovitz deserve credit for leading a series of successful drafts while keeping the team semi-competitive.
