One of the highlights of the All-Star Game break for me is the Futures Game. It’s fun to see the next generation of MLB talent and dream of what they could do for the Cubs someday. Who can forget Javier Báez stealing the show when all we heard about before the 2014 game was Kris Bryant, or this incredible display from then Cubs prospect Eloy Jiménez in 2017 [VIDEO].
But this year, I didn’t watch the Futures Game. Chances are for the 2022 version of this year’s showcase of top minor league talent, you either read about Pete Crow-Armstrong’s double after the fact or maybe just caught the highlights via video or Twitter later.
