Jefferson Rojas, it turns out, just barely missed the top-100 (107), while the other Cubs prospect in that next group is a mild surprise: 3B/2B switch-hitt...

Obviously, he wouldn’t call plays but getting experience learning an under center offense would benefit him and his stock immensely. It would be way better for his ...
