Saying Chicago Cubs prospect Ian Happ homered “again,” doesn’t really do the trick at this point.

It was another opposite field blast, too.
The homer was Happ’s fifth in just eight games with the Iowa Cubs, which leads the team. Er, no, it leads the Pacific Coast League. Er, no, it leads all of the minor leagues.
That’s how you wind up hitting .303/.361/.788 through your first eight games at AAA. That ISO is .485. Lulz.
In 134 minor league games in 2016, split between High-A and AA, Happ hit 15 homers. He’s currently on pace to hit 84 homers in 134 AAA games.
