My first run through the Cubs system gave me 49 players to consider. I have hacked that down to 40 and need to get it down to 36 at most. Again, the dilemma comes down to finding the right balance between low-level guys with upside who are very far away, and role players who are close to the majors. In this case there are the big summer free agent names that people want to read about, but who haven't played yet.
