  1. Tom mentioned it but I think BA (or Athletic?) had an article about how down IFA is across baseball since there were only 10-15 IFAs in their top 100. One of the reasons given was the end of short season ball disproportionally hurting players signed at 16 and 17. The biggest surprise to me was that there were only 2 IFA pitchers in the top 100 and they both got 7-figure bonuses.
  2. Cowles was the only Cubs position player to play today. He went 0/4. Four Cubs pitchers got in:
  3. Better view of all three of Long’s hits:
  4. Long oppo field HR!
  5. Game still going but Ballesteros is 1/3 with a single and Long is 2/3 with a double and a single.

  7. Long (1B) and Ballesteros (DH) batting 2nd and 3rd tonight.
  8. BA, today (I'm quoting the reference to Long from the start of Sept above): https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/9-underrated-mlb-hitting-prospects-to-target-according-to-roboscout/
  9. On opening night, Ballesteros is batting third at catcher, Cowles batting eight and playing short.
  10. It stinks Jesús Made looks like another elite Brewers prospect.
  11. Looks like Sam Thoresen was added to Mesa's roster, probably only for the taxi squad. Opening day is today.
  12. Final stats: https://www.thecubreporter.com/2024-cubs-az-instructional-league-acl-continuation-camp-bridge-final-stats Some good stuff in the comments:
  13. The Cubs now have 8 top 100 prospects.
  14. Mathis was in my 11-20 and Southisene just missed my top 20. Cruz and Lovich would probably be in the 30s, closer to 40.
  15. No, and I've asked around a bit and got nothing.
  16. Besides Jonathon Long, please also add Jack Neeley and Ty Southisene. Alexander Canario and Luis Vázquez also graduated, per MLB Pipeline.
