The website Fangraphs released their list of the Top 100 prospects in baseball and they had good news for Cubs fans as they think that five Cubs players belong among the top 114 prospects in the game. (Their list goes out to 114 players as they have many, many ties at the bottom of the list.)
Fangraphs’ ranking fits in with what other prospect experts have been saying—the Cubs system is a very deep one at the moment. While only two prospects make the Top 100 proper, three more players are ranked in that “101 to 114” range that they lump in as basically tied for the final spots.
