## Resource

Cubs prospect Kane Kapler is blowing up in the minors, leading all of baseball’s farm systems in stolen bases, walks, and runs scored—with a jaw-dropping 91% success rate on steals. He’s the first minor leaguer this season to notch 70 steals and continues to impress with elite speed and plate discipline, even as his batting average dips at Double-A. A second-round pick, Kapler’s blend of patience and power-speed makes him a rare gem—and with strong performances, he could be headed to Triple-A by spring and potentially even the majors by September.
