With a packed minor league system, the Cleveland Indians have plenty of young talent poised to be the next Jose Ramirez, Andrew Miller, and Corey Kluber in future All-Star Games.

With up to five Cleveland Indians looking for a starting or bench spot on the 2017 All-Star team, looking ahead at the future of the team is possibly premature but, at the same time, it is extremely exciting.

Recent draft success has led to a powerhouse of talent in the Indians organization at all levels and even with the trade for Andrew Miller, there are still numerous future stars in the ranks.

With enough talent at every position, the Indians are not only a team built to win now, but also for the next 10 years. Some of this talent has already come through for the team with players like Francisco Lindor, Jason Kipnis, and Jose Ramirez being with the organization their entire careers.

Gone are the days of poor drafting. Gone are the Michael Aubrey and Beau Mills-type picks that leave the organization years behind.

With tens of names to pick from for this list, it was clear the talent pool was much higher than even an avid minor league watcher would have noticed.

A lot can happen in a baseball career, but these five guys are the ones who have the highest ceiling and the most potential to be All-Stars. These are not the top five prospects in terms of talent or expectations. Instead, these are the five who (if they continue to succeed and progress) could see themselves in multiple All-Star Games in the near future.
