Cubs
1st Round Draft Picks |
| The MLB
baseball draft is not as well followed as the NBA or NFL drafts.
As a die hard Cubs fan I find it interesting to see what our
draft picks have done in the big leagues. Below I have listed
all of the Chicago Cubs first round draft picks. Names that
stand out to me are Mark Prior, Corey Patterson, Jon Garland,
Kerry Wood, Rafael Palmeiro, and Shawon Dunston to name a few.
Take a look below at the Chicago Cubs draft history, I found
it very interesting as a true Cubs fan and baseball fan in general. |
