Brett Jackson comes in at 8 as the only Cub:

Once again, no real surprises here: 1 Cub made the list - Brett Jackson at #4. Jackson was ranked ahead of Jarrod Parker, Arodys Vizcaino and Randall Delgado. Chris Archer came in at 11.

Matt Szczur was the only Cub to crack the list at 8. Hak-Ju Lee was #3.

Matt Szczur come in at #9:

:)

The list won't be out till Monday but Jim Callis offered up a hint on Twitter: The 2 are probably Gioskar Amaya and Marco Hernandez. I wonder who the 3 who missed the cut are. Some guesses: Neftali Rosario, Oliver Zapata, Hunter Ackerman or Dustin Geiger?
