Ian Happ

Ian Happ will open the 2019 season in Triple-A Iowa.

Fantasy Impact

Well this is surprising. Happ has been a semi-regular for the Cubs since debuting in 2017 but has struggled to remain consistent. He’s still just 24 years old so there’s plenty of potential left in his bat, and the Cubs likely want him to get regular playing time. He should be back in a Chicago at some point this year but he can be dropped in re-draft leagues for now.

Ian Happ went 2-for-3 with a walk Thursday versus Pittsburgh. He would come around to score on the eventual game-winning hit.

Fantasy Impact

Happ is part of a rotation right now but time will tell how 2019 might look. He has shown patience and power but needs to work on his contact rate.

Ian Happ went 1-for-4 with a walk Sunday versus the White Sox. He would drive in the final Cubs run and also steal his eighth base of the season.

Ian Happ went 1-for-4 Tuesday versus Arizona. He would drive in the third Cubs run and then come around to score later in the inning.

Fantasy Impact

Happ has power and the ability to draw walks but still struggles to keep a solid batting average. He will get some starts down the stretch.

Ian Happ went 1-for-3 Friday versus the Reds. The one hit was a three-run homer that provided all the runs for the Cubs in their 3-2 victory. It was his 15th of the season.

Happ has power and the ability to draw walks but still struggles to keep a solid batting average. He is not starting every-day and is more of a DFS lottery pick you can play on the days he starts.
