Cubs' First Round Pick Schwarber Rockets Through System

Cubs 2014 first round draft pick Kyle Schwarber from Indiana is blasting through the Cubs' minor league system this summer. Schwarber started 2014 at short season Boise and promptly took apart Northwest League pitchers (.600-4-10) in 5 games. He was then promoted to Low Class A Kane County of the Midwest League and continued to hit (.361-4-15) in 23 games. Schwarber was recently promoted to High A Daytona of the Florida State League and is already homered in just 3 games (.364-1-1.) Schwarber's overall numbers are (.404 9 HR 26 RBI, 9 2B, 1 3B and 17 walks in just 31 professional games. It looks like the Cubs have another potential impact bat on their hands.
