The Cubs have agreed to terms with 1st-round pick Ed Howard, the local shortstop who was selected 16th overall earlier this month.

Lance Brozdowski takes an in-depth look at the Cubs’ draft haul on Day 2, including a pair of hard-throwing lefties and an outfielder built more like a linebacker.

The Cubs made left-handed pitcher Burl Carraway the 51st overall pick in the 2020 MLB Draft and they feel confident he can make an impact in the big leagues soon. Like…really soon.

Almost six years before Ed Howard became the Cubs first round selection in 2020, he was celebrated at the Friendly Confines as a member of the Jackie Robinson West team.
