Ian Happ Homers Twice, Cubs Fall Short Against A's
by Emily Maingi | Cubs Correspondent | Wed, Sep 18th 12:25pm EDT
Ian Happ delivered a strong performance, going 3-for-5 with two home runs and two RBIs in the Cubs' narrow 4-3 loss to the Athletics.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing boosts his season totals to 25 home runs and 84 RBIs. Despite the Cubs' loss, Happ's power display underscores his ability to contribute significantly in the power categories for fantasy managers. His consistent power stroke, combined with a solid .347 wOBA, makes him a valuable asset in most fantasy formats, especially in leagues that reward extra-base hits and RBIs. However, his high strikeout rate (.260) continues to be a concern, potentially impacting his batting average and on-base opportunities.
