boy, thought concepcion would be better than that. what gives?
I have been a cubs fan for over 60 yrs.I was wondering what happendto these prospects Junior Lake, David Cales, Evan Crowford,Zachary Roseecup, Graham Hicks, &Pierre LePage I haven’t seen any of them in the farm system this year.
Most of the time, if you can’t find a prospect, they are at extended Spring Training in Mesa. That’s where Junior Lake is; he’s had back problems.
