Earlier in the week, I touched on the surprise awaiting Chicago Cubs fans who read Keith Law's preseason top 100 prospects list at The Athletic (subscription required). Kevin Alcantara, who many publications have dropped out of their top-100 rankings, led all Cubs prospects for Law - including the likes of Moises Ballesteros, who is expected to play a major role for the big-league club in 2026. Notably absent was right-handed pitching prospect Jaxon Wiggins, who the Cubs hope will follow in Cade Horton's footsteps and impact their rotation at some point this season. All told, Wiggins finished the year with a 2.77 ERA in 78 innings pitched, his single-season high in either his college or pro career. That's not to say Wiggins is going to step in and deliver results of that caliber.
