Cubs' Prospects FUTUREBONER thread

[InternetApex]

I was there when Dusty Baker had Mark Prior throw 7 innings and 116 pitches in Game 2 of the '03 NLDS in which the Cubs led 11-0 after 5 innings (and 12-2 after 6)

I was also there

So was Juan Cruz.

He was sitting next to me just under the scoreboard in center.

That was actually his son Raoul, from his first marriage.

I was there for this misery.  And this.

I went to all of University of California's home games last season

I was at the three NLCS games in Hollywood, FL in '03.  That 24 hour drive home was fun.

I had 6 tickets to the May 6th. 1998 Cubs game.
I was really busy at work that day and it was supposed to rain so I gave 4 of them away to a clerk that worked for one of our brokers.

For free.

The other 2 went unused.

He and his three idiot friends were from the south side.

So I gave 4 tickets away to that game to a bunch of White Sox fans and I didn't even get to go.

There is a special circle in Hell waiting for me.

According to my records Tom Glavine didn't make history at Wrigley that day so I'm not sure what you're going on about.

You may have been in Hollywood or you were at Joe Robbie/Pro Player/Sun Life/ Yadda Yadda Stadium, which is in North Miami Beach.  (I grew up in Hollywood).

Maybe the hotel was in Hollywood.  I don't remember much.  I was also very drunk and very not paying attention to the Zambrano game as I was making out with a chick I met the night before.  No way they could lose two in a row at home with Prior and Wood pitching, right?

The Cubs are Jason Parks' second-best farm system in the game.

1. Minnesota
2. Chicago Cubs

Farm System Ranking in 2013: 12
2014 Top Ten Prospects: Link
State of the System: Thanks to a strong draft, clever trades, an aggressive acquisition plan in the international market, and developmental progress from some of the big names in the system, the Cubs became one of the strongest systems in the game.
Top Prospect: Javier Baez (4)
Breakout Candidates for 2014: Jeimer Candelario and Paul Blackburn
Prospects on the BP 101: 7
Must-See Affiliate: Double-A Tennessee
Prospects to See There: Kris Bryant, Albert Almora, Jorge Soler, CJ Edwards, Pierce Johnson, Dan Vogelbach
Farm System Trajectory for 2015: Up. While its likely that several of the Cubs' top prospects will get a taste of the majors in 2014, the majority of the talent will remain eligible for next season's list, and if you add to the mix a high draft pick this June and an extreme amount of young depth ready to make their stateside debuts, the system could take over the coveted rank of number one in baseball.

3. Pittsburgh
4. Boston
5. Houston
6. St. Louis
7. Kansas City
8. New York Mets
9. Texas
10. Colorado

16. Cincinnati

21. White Sox

29. Milwaukee

I'm not buying Almora and Vogelbach both starting the year in AA.

Note: Players mentioned in the "Prospects To See There" sections aren't necessarily starting the season at the "Must-See Affiliate." However, they may appear there at some point in 2014.

Thanks. Link was blocked.

I'm still hoping Rock Shoulders somehow rises up in the rankings, because Rock Shoulders.
