Don't forget about 2020 first-rounder Ed Howard.

The elite prospect's rehab is going well on his left hip injury, as Cubs President of Operations Jed Hoyer said Monday.

"He's starting to move around well. He looks good. Obviously, we knew the injury was a long road, but he's worked like crazy to come back," Hoyer said.

"We're excited to see him on the field soon and see him in spring training. But sounds like he's doing well."

For the 2022 season, he hit .244 in 23 games before the injury. In his final 14 games, he hit .320.
