Recently, MLB updated their rankings of the Top 30 prospects for each team. We broke this down into a three-part series and today is the final installment with prospects No. 1-10.

If you missed Part 1 or Part 2, you can go back and click on the links provided. Today, we break down prospects 10-1. These are the guys you definitely want to be most familiar with as they are top in the organization and some could even be with the big league club as early as this season.

Despite some of the Chicago Cubs big named prospects cracking the big leagues last year, the Cubs are not short of talent in the farm system. The Cubs continue to stress the importance of pitching depth but only three of the Top 10 prospects are pitchers, however, we did see a lot of pitchers in the middle and back of the Top 30 list.

The guy to definitely keep an eye out for is right-handed pitcher Carl Edwards Jr. He had a cup of coffee with the Cubs last September and could vie for a bullpen spot heading into spring training. Here is the full breakdown of the Top 10, beginning with No. 10.
