This series of Cubs prospect profiles is based on Fangraphs’ top 52 prospects list, minus the players who have already been profiled. Generally, these will be of Triple-A and Double-A players that might see the 40-man roster at some point. I’m not necessarily doing them in order and will skip around a bit.
James Triantos has been a busy guy, and the results have him sitting pretty as the Cubs’ No. 2 prospect on the list we’re using, which has him pegged for a 2026 arrival. Maybe before that if he continues his exploits in the same fashion as he has been, as has his good friend Kevin Alcantara, but he doesn’t have to hurry.
