The Chicago Cubs are poised to be one of baseball's most improved teams in 2015. Headlined by the acquisition of seven more line drives than homers, if you're into that kind of thing.

Outfielder 27 pounds of added muscle to his frame.

Although Soler might be the safest prospect of the bunch, third baseman FanGraphs' scouting report has his raw power graded out at a scale topping 80, and his game power not far behind at 70. We could see Bryant as early as opening day if he has a solid spring and if incumbent Mike Olt struggles.

The Cubs are stacked with talent. However, talent can take time to develop, especially with position player and even more so with the power tool. For this reason, the Cubs are probably the single toughest team to project. If Lester dominates, Rizzo and Castro progress, and the pups develop quickly, the Cubs could be a sleeper in the division and a legitimate wild card contender. However, if Baez power doesn't translate, Bryant's development slows down, and Rizzo or Castro get hurt or take a step back, the Cubs are probably still a year or two away.

If nothing else, the Cubs will at least be fun to watch in 2015.
