Cubs catching prospect Miguel Amaya is tearing things up down in Puerto Rico.

Miguel Amaya must be hearing rumblings in the baseball stratosphere. Amid a year plagued by a national pandemic and a minor league season lost, the 21-year-old Chicago Cubs prospect is making every effort to continue his development and prove to the brass that he can be the future backstop in Wrigleyville.

Amaya has been an anomaly of sorts throughout his first few years in the league. In 2018, he ranked as the organization’s number 22 overall prospect.
