Carolina League
16. Adbert Alzolay, RHP, Myrtle Beach (Cubs)
Age: 22 B-T: R-R Ht.: 6-0 Wt.: 179 Signed: Venezuela, 2012
An under-the-radar signing out of Venezuela in 2013, Alzolay has improved his
delivery and rhythm over the past two seasons and saw better results this
year at high Class A.
He quickened his pace noticeably and started using his legs more in his
delivery, and as a result he was able to sustain his mid-90s fastball
throughout the duration of his outing. He coupled the pitch with an average
curveball in the low 80s and a below-average changeup in the high 80s.
Alzolay's quickened pace—he's one of the fastest-working pitchers you'll
find in the minor leagues—has a twofold purpose. He doesn't want hitters to
get a chance to think about what's coming next, and his coaches don't want
him to get a chance to overthink things either. As a 6-foot righthander who
doesn't generate a high groundball rate, he could be destined for the bullpen.
Northwest League
4. Jose Albertos, RHP, Eugene (Cubs)
Age: 18. B-T: R-R. Ht.: 6-1. Wt.: 185. Signed: Mexico, 2015.
After signing with the Cubs out of Mexico in 2015 for $1.5 million, Albertos
finally had an opportunity to show what he could do in 2017. The 18-year-old
righthander missed all but four innings of last season due to forearm
tightness, but he bounced back to throw 34.2 innings across eight starts with
Eugene this year, going 2-1, 2.86.
Albertos displayed an advanced feel for pitching and often overmatched
hitters with his dominant fastball-changeup combo. The 6-foot-1, 180-pound
righthander works 91-94 mph but can rear back for 96-97 mph when he needs it.
His changeup is a potential 70-grade pitch on the 20-80 scale, and Albertos
is unafraid to throw the pitch in any count. His breaking ball grades behind
both pitches but has flashed potential in the past; development of that pitch
will be key going forward.
Albertos' command wavered at times, but Eugene manager Jesus Feliciano said
the righthander has a strong mound presence and an eagerness to learn, both
of which should serve him well as he moves through the system. "When you see
kids at his age able to control his offspeed pitches, it tells you a lot,"
Feliciano said. "He's been capable of doing that lately."
8. Aramis Ademan, SS, Eugene (Cubs)
Age: 19. B-T: L-R. Ht.: 5-11. Wt.: 160. Signed: Dominican Republic, 2015.
Signed out of the Dominican Republic in 2015 for $2 million, Ademan made a
leap forward, particularly with the bat, in 2017. He earned a promotion to
low Class A South Bend at the end of July after batting .286/.365/.466 for
Eugene. Ademan has an average arm and average speed, but he makes up for it
with advanced defensive instincts at shortstop and soft hands.
Just 19, Ademan will still make the occasional error on routine plays, but
he's shown an eagerness to learn and has been highly coachable. He surprised
managers and scouts this summer with more juice in his bat than his
5-foot-11, 160-pound frame would suggest. Ademan has a smooth lefthanded
swing and shows the ability to spray the ball to all fields.
With a discerning batting eye and a disciplined approach, Ademan has the
chance to be a plus hitter. He's gotten stronger since signing and should
continue to get stronger, but he has mostly gap power at present. His hit
tool and defensive ability should carry him.
9. Javier Assad, RHP, Eugene (Cubs)
Age: 20. B-T: R-R. Ht.: 6-1. Wt.: 200. Signed: Mexico, 2015.
The Cubs Signed Assad out of Mexico in 2015, and the thick-bodied righthander
had a strong debut in the Rookie-level Arizona League in 2016, going 2-2,
2.87 in 37.2 innings. Assad built off of that performance with another solid
season as a 20-year-old in the NWL. He went 5-6, 4.23 and had an exceptional
outing in the playoffs against Vancouver in which he allowed one hit and
struck out nine in six innings.
Like fellow Cub Jose Albertos, Assad can run his fastball up to the mid-90s,
touching 96 mph, but he generally works 90-94 mph, and he impressed opposing
managers with his command of the pitch. Assad throws a full four-pitch mix
and showed advanced pitching feel. His slider is his most effective secondary
offering, grading ahead of his curveball, but both pitches have shape. Assad
is able to add and subtract from his changeup and commands the pitch well.
Going forward, Assad's focus will need to be on conditioning and keeping his
weight down. If he's able to maintain his health, he has the fastball and
pitchability to project as a No. 3 or No. 4 starter.
16. Miguel Amaya, C, Eugene (Cubs)
Age: 18. B-T: R-R. Ht.: 6-1. Wt.: 185. Signed: Panama, 2015.
The Cubs challenged the 18-year-old Amaya by moving him from the Dominican
Summer league all the way to Eugene for the 2017 season. Playing against
college-aged competition, Amaya battled some inconsistency at the plate, but
manager Jose Feliciano said he was impressed with the improvements the young
catcher made throughout the season.
Amaya still has a ways to go offensively. The righthanded hitter has some pop
in his bat and the chance to hit for power, but he'll need to cut down on
swings and misses in order to access it. Amaya has smooth actions behind the
plate and an average throwing arm. He still needs to improve his game-calling
skills, but he should have little problem sticking as a catcher.
Amaya is far from his ceiling, but his defensive ability gives him a higher
floor. If he's able to more consistently tap into his power, he could develop
into an impact player behind the dish.
ARIZONA LEAGUE
20. Nelson Velazquez, OF, Cubs
Age: 18. B-T: R-R. Wt: 6-0. Wt: 190. Drafted: HS—Carolina, P.R., 2017 (5).
Selected with the last pick of the fifth round, Velazquez waited until just
before the signing deadline to agree to terms with the Cubs for an over-slot
$400,000 bonus. Despite not getting into a game until near the end of the
first half, he often showed off plus raw power, smacking eight home runs in
just 110 at-bats and falling one homer short of the AZL lead.
While still raw at the plate, Velazquez has a strong body and makes hard
contact, generating power to all fields with excellent bat speed. He tends to
open up on the front side and get pull happy, struggling with pitches away,
but he barrels up balls on pitches middle in. He improved his two-strike
approach during the summer. It's a power over average profile now, but he's
got a chance to hit for average with a better approach and improved pitch
recognition.
Velazquez flashed a plus arm and plus speed during pre-draft workouts, but
was slower in his first pro season due to a nagging hamstring problem. While
he played all three outfield positions in the AZL, he projects best as a
middle-of-the-order corner outfielder.
PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE
18. Victor Caratini, C/1B, Iowa (Cubs)
Age: 24 B-T: B-R Ht.: 6-1 Wt.: 215 Drafted: Miami Dade JC, 2013 (2/Braves)
The Cubs acquired Caratini in 2014 when they shipped Emilio Bonifacio and
James Russell to the Braves. The switch-hitter found his power stroke in 2017
with a career-high 10 home runs at Iowa, resulting in multiple big league
callups to the Cubs.
A natural righthanded hitter, Caratini improved his production from the left
side by learning to meet the ball out front more frequently. With solid
command of the strike zone, he should hit for average.
Caratini is an average receiver with a fringe-average arm who threw out 27
percent of basestealers. Drafted as a third baseman before committing to
catcher, he also plays first base regularly but lacks profile power to play
there every day.

Q&A
Jeff (Somewhere): Aramis Ademan kind of snuck up on me this year as a guy
with a potentially very high ceiling. I really like what he showed this year
on paper and the field. Is he next up among Cubs bat prospects?
Michael Lananna: Ademan took a really nice step forward this year, and you're
right, he does have a very high ceiling. While he plays beyond his years, his
game does still need some polish. He made errors on a few routine plays,
which comes with youth. And he'll need to add a bit more strength to more
consistently tap into his power at the plate. The ingredients are all there,
and by all accounts the makeup and work ethic are too. He's an exciting
player, but he's going to need a little more seasoning—which is perfectly
normal given his age.
Navin (Pasadena, CA): How concerned should Cubs fans be about Brendon
Little's struggles in the NWL?
Michael Lananna: Mildly concerned, but don't press the panic button yet. He's
the same guy. His control was erratic throughout his college career, and
that's still going to remain his biggest hurdle to the next level. This
summer was just a small snapshot of that, and I'm sure the Cubs will work
with him on his strikethrowing going forward. He's still an exciting
lefthanded arm with power stuff.
Jeff (Somewhere): Alex Lange had a couple outings for the Emeralds. Anything
noteworthy about them? Why am I terrified for his elbow?
Michael Lananna: There's no chance Lange was going to pitch much in pro ball
this summer with the workload he had at LSU. Don't be terrified. The LSU
coaching staff was very mindful of his workload and chose not to start him on
short rest in the College World Series to protect his arm. I've seen Lange
quite a bit over the last few years. He's a bulldog and a winner, and his
breaking ball, when it's on, is unhittable. He needs to work on his changeup
and learn to pitch off his fastball more, but he has very high upside.
Navin (Pasadena, CA): Hi Michael, Eugene's Jhonny Bethencourt, Jesus Camargo
and Enrique de los Rios piqued my interest this season. Obviously none of
them made the top 20 but I was wondering if you had anything of note about
any of them. Thank you!
Michael Lananna: Hi Navin. Eugene manager Jesus Feliciano raved about
Bethencourt and the improvements he made during the course of the year. No,
he's not a top prospect, but he has the chance to be a useful role player. He
showed versatility, playing multiple positions for Eugene. He can hit a
little bit, albeit without much power, and speed is part of his game as well.
Jeff (Somewhwre): Any other Cubs come particularly close?
Bill Mitchell: In addition to the aforementioned Brailyn Marquez, another
Cubs player who attracted attention was second baseman Yonathan Perlaza. He
didn’t play after August 3rd due to injury, but has a strong athletic build
and some upside with the bat. He’s limited to second base but has good hands
there. Also remember the name Luis Vasquez, a 17-year-old shortstop from
Puerto Rico who signed at the same time as Nelson Velazquez just before the
deadline. He has great hands and an accurate arm, and makes good contact at
the plate.
Jeff (Somewhere): What can you tell us about Cubs' LH Brailyn Marquez? I'm a
little turned off by the HRs allowed to Rk ball hitters, even if he showed
some ability to miss bats.
Bill Mitchell: I’ll start today’s chat with a couple of questions about
Cubs players who didn’t make the list. Southpaw Brailyn Marquez was on
earlier versions of the list, finishing just outside the top 20. Here is the
heart of what I wrote about him: “Marquez is a physical, projectable
left-hander with plenty of arm strength and a strong lower half. His fastball
ranges from 90 to 95 mph with two-seam action and tail. He's got a loose arm
with a compact arm swing. Marquez is still trying to get feel for a slurvy
73-79 mph breaking ball that flashes as an average pitch and will eventually
morph into a slider. He doesn't use a firm high-80s changeup much.”
