RE: need some advice
Why not keep them? If you are in need of immediate cash for some reason, sell; however, if you want to wait and see what happens, just sit on them.
I appreciate Chicago players that begin competing within the city's sports organizations and stay with these teams throughout their careers.

I'd hold for a bit if you think he will crush it in the minors. The kid has some pop and it translated to rookie ball right away. If he starts mashing low-a prices go up. If he mashes low-a and gets a promotion they go up even more. If he mashes both low-a and high-a... you get it.
Hardly ever will a hyped prospect whose prices are already high, maintain that price after a major league call-up (harper/trout and extreme upper-echelon, high demand guys are just about the only exception...), but there is lots of room for prices to grow with a player this young and this low in the minors.
PC Players: Alex Bregman and Christian Yelich. Looking for any and every I don't have.
Other Players: Luis Ortiz Jr., Rowdy Tellez, Touki Toussaint
