Before we get into a diatribe about the Chicago Cubs and what they should do with Bryant, I will preface by saying in no way should Theo Epstein and company trade the 27-year-old superstar. Now that is over with we can jump into more of the future talent working their way through Chicago’s pipeline.
Most of the fanbase has not yet heard the name Fabian Pertuz. If I am candid, I had not yet either until I came across his page on Fangraphs. Per the organizational ranks on Fangraphs, Pertuz currently sits as the number 23 overall prospect in the Cubs’ tunnel of talent.
