As if there was any doubt about the popularity of Cubs star players, three of them are among the most popular jerseys of the year. MLB.com recently posted a ranking of the 20 best-selling shirts of 2018, and Javier Baez, Anthony Rizzo and Kris Bryant, all of Chicago, all do the cup.

The Yankees star, Aaron Judge, the young superstar of the biggest sports market, is unsurprisingly at the top of the list for the second year in a row. He is followed by second baseman Astrou, Jose Altuve, who climbed 13th place a year ago after winning the MVP title and leading Houston to a world championship in 2017.

Javy Baez is the first member of the Cubs on the list, coming in third, which is an increase over last year's 10th. Rizzo and Bryant, who each placed in the top three in 2017, are sixth and seventh, respectively.

He's a player less than a year ago, when Kyle Schwarber joined his teammates on the roster, but the Cubs still have more players in the top 10 than any other team.

The White Sox, meanwhile, are again excluded in the midst of their reconstruction. Maybe Yoan Moncada or Eloy Jimenez will eventually arrive on the list. The complete list is included below.
