Baseball Prospectus's Kevin Goldstein previews each National League team's draft outlook. About the Chicago Cubs he writes:

Scouting Director: Tim Wilken. As the Cubs fade into oblivion in the National League Central, Wilken is looking more and more like their best offseason acquisition. . . . He is one of the prime architects of the Blue Jays success, and his legacy is still in effect, as he played a major role in the drafting of Roy Halladay, Vernon Wells and Alexis Rios. The two drafts he consulted on in Tampa Bay are also highly regarded, and he's one of the most respected men in the business. There are no patterns to his drafts when it comes to positions or source, only in talent.

What The System Needs: Outfielders. As Ryan Harvey continues to struggle, Felix Pie becomes the team's only real prospect among flychasers.

What They'll Do On Tuesday: . . . . They've scouted the college pitching crop heavily, but late whispers have them working out several high school power sources.
