Named MVP of the Futures Game.

Looked damn impressive with his combination of speed, power, and fielding.

Hopefully, Jed doesn't trade him for a #3 starter with a "valuable" contract.

I really am enjoying this return of Cubs fans to prospect watching and attendance cheering

I still get irrationally angry every time I see Davis, because then I think of the incredibly stupid/stubborn KKKKCorey Patterson who the Cubs drafted at 3 and hyped the hell out of. Patterson once said in a TV interview something to the effect of "I have swung at the high fastball all my life. I am going to keep swinging at them." when asked about his inability to hit even a #4 starter's fastball in the big leagues. Ahead of his time, today his strikeout numbers and BA would be considered average.

For White Sox fans, it's like seeing Gavin Sheets wandering around RF as a rookie, and having irrational flashbacks of Joe Borchard.
