These lists are always hard to balance between potential and major league readiness.

So the latest 1st round pick is #3 and a 4/5 NL starter is #4?

Welcome the White Sox tier Cubs fans, its OK you graduated like a million players last season.

Had some injuries and some poor results last season. Needs to learn to keep his walks down. Expect him to start in AAA next season, possibly rekindle some of his perceived value.

I'm surprised Almora is on the list. Media keep talking about that guy, but sure seems to me like he has #5 OF written all over him.

Being on schedule is great. No dont a clear and real chance is upon us. The years of losing, the high praise in the offseason, the plan on track, the pending large FA deals, the high point of last year, the vegas favorite....all going to have this pressure cooker on 11 next year.....might "even go to 12" we will see.
