That feels...outdated.

Good call, they actually did a video podcast with a Brennen Davis interview:

I don't know about his prospect chops, but I like him. He's Marquee's dedicated BaseballSavant dork. Between him and Sharma one of them usually catches when a Cubs pitcher starts doing something interesting.

Oh my god. This tweet has been up for more than an hour.

Don't Google Riley Steele at work or with kids around.

Pipeline ranks the Cubs system 18th.

 

18. Chicago Cubs

2021 preseason rank: 22

2020 midseason rank: 26

2020 preseason rank: 23

Top 100 Prospects: Brennen Davis, OF (No. 14); Brailyn Marquez, LHP (No. 94)

 

The Cubs system has received a major of influx of talent since the end of last season, via a slew of trade acquisitions (led by outfielders Pete Crow-Armstrong, Owen Caissie and Alexander Canario, shortstop Reginald Preciado and right-hander Caleb Kilian), the international signing of shortstop Cristian Hernandez and the drafting of left-hander Jordan Wicks and shortstop James Triantos. Among the prospects who were already in house, SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game MVP Davis has blossomed into one of the game's best, but many of Chicago's top pitchers (Marquez and right-hander Kohl Franklin among others) have missed all or most of the season.

It seems like there are more legit OF prospects than I've seen in the Cubs system in awhile. I like it.

Davis

Caissie

PCA

Alcantara

Canario

Pinango

Velasquez

Nwogu

Roederer

Franklin

C. Morel

 

I know most won't make it, but I have to believe there's a starting MLB OF in there somewhere.

I don't care much about the rankings; it's just too bad that Amaya and Marquez seasons were wash outs.
