The Chicago Cubs have high expectations coming into the 2015 season and some fans are thinking playoffs because of the young talent they have in Jorge Soler, Javier Baez and Kris Bryant and that talent was on display on Tuesday, as the three players hit back-to-back-to-back home runs in spring training play in the Cactus League.

The Cubs signed Jon Lester to a free agent deal this offseason and while the team is likely 1-2 years away from contending, they have a strong core of young players. The three prospects in Soler, Baez and Bryant make for a strong group with Anthony Rizzo and the team is hoping those players move up the system quickly. All three have shown great promise and they are all very young, with Soler and Bryant just 23 years old, while Baez is 22 years old and they could all end up having a significant impact on the Cubs this season.
