Ian Happ has quiet night amid Cubs' loss

Ian Happ went 1-for-4 with a run scored in the Cubs' 9-5 defeat to the Rockies.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite reaching base twice, once via a walk, Happ's contributions weren't enough to sway the outcome in favor of Chicago. This season, Happ's batting average sits at .243, with his power numbers being relatively solid, including 23 homers and 81 RBI over 140 games. His consistent power and ability to draw walks (73 this season) keep him relevant in fantasy lineups, especially in formats that value on-base percentage. However, his high strikeout rate (160 strikeouts) remains a concern for batting average stability. Moving forward, fantasy managers should continue to value Happ for his power and run production, while being wary of the potential drag on batting average.
