Cubs Prospect Perspective: Brendon Little

Left-handed pitcher. Born August 11, 1996, Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania
2017 Draft, Cubs 1st Round pick from College of Central Florida (27th overall pick)

Sometimes, if we’re being honest, a bit of mea culpa applies. I didn’t like the Little selection. If I remember correctly, I preferred Griffin Canning, who had pitched well at UCLA. One other name (similar to Little) was Nate Pearson, who I’m going to give an entire paragraph, even though he was not selected by the Cubs. Instead, he went to the Blue Jays with the next pick (28th overall).

Pearson was from the College of Central Florida, as well.
