Cubs Prospect Pedro Ramirez Shows Utility Potential, Nearing MLB Debut

Chicago Cubs switch-hitting prospect Pedro Ramirez, 21, is showing strong potential as a utility player with starter upside, though he's likely to begin the 2026 season in Triple-A Iowa. Ramirez boasts a lifetime minor league slash line of .291/.362/.412 with 86 stolen bases and a .774 OPS. While his power is limited, he possesses decent speed and a good glove, playing third, short, and second base. His development will be key for the Cubs, who see him as a versatile right-handed bat.
