Hilarious to me that Rizzo, Baez, Bryant et al struggled so mightily this year, while Ortega, Schwindel and Chirinos are all above .300 average and are just smacking extra base hits all over the place
The dumb Reds ALWAYS talk about Happ loving that "hometown hitting". It's like they can't just be happy with their own team, they have to appropriate every Ohio-born player on other teams Before that homer, Happ had a .349/.457/.783/1.240 line at GAB. Maybe they'll take him off our hands?

Cubs "gain" 2.5 games on the D-Backs, but have not yet jumped anyone. Losing 9 straight doesn't get you very far with all these terrible teams
