Opening Day!
I had a nice writeup of the guys who made the Opening Day roster, but when I was trying to open a new tab, I accidentally refreshed, and lost all I wrote. Of course, this killed my will to write again, so instead of an all encompassing report, here are the 23 players set to represent the Cougars in Cleveland to start the 1938 season:

The Opening Day predictions were not created, but the official top 100 prospects list were released. The Cougars rank 5th with 159 points, headlined by the #1 overall prospect in baseball Pete Papenfus. We have 10 top 100 prospects, 20 top 200 prospects, and 42 top 500 prospects. The only prospect starting in Chicago this year is Harry Mead (5th/48th), but he's not the only rookie. Orlin Yates is also a rookie, he is no longer a prospect.
