The Cubs are on the rise. Not only did their Major League team take a step up in 2023, but so did their minor league system. We even saw Pete Crow-Armstrong make his big league debut in mid-September. I love their number one pick last July in Matt Shaw and believe he will be a fast riser, and if Alcantara can make enough contact, he could be the best of the lot.
It’s a strong system, and with the financial resources of the Major League club, it appears that the Cubs are poised for an extended run.
