Lance Brozdowski is a player development analyst for Marquee Sports Network. Below is Lance’s list of the Top 30 Cubs prospects as he unveiled on “Road to Wrigley” Monday evening. For more on the Cubs prospects all year long, follow Lance on Twitter @lancebroz.

Note: Brozdowski’s full analysis of his Top 30 prospect rankings will be out next week in advance of minor league Opening Day.

Also be on the lookout for a special episode of the Cubs Weekly Podcast next week where Brozdowski breaks down the toughest decisions on his rankings and analyzes the Cubs farm system as a whole.

For reference, here is Brozdowski’s list from the middle of last season.

Brozdowski’s list differs quite a bit from MLB Pipeline’s Jim Callis, including the Top 5 selections.

Both analysts have Crow-Armstrong and Alcantara in the top two spots but where Brozdowski goes Wesneski-Brown-Wicks as his 3-4-5, Callis takes a different route with Davis ranked 3rd, Horton 4th and Wesneski 5th.
