Happ went 1-for-4 with a walk, a solo home run and an additional run scored in Monday's 7-2 win over the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

After a relatively quiet performance on Opening Day, Happ has now gone deep in Chicago's last three games. He's thriving in the No. 3 spot in the order between Alex Bregman and Pete Crow-Armstrong. Happ's career high in home runs for a season is 25, which he's done twice, and while it's too early to say he'll surpass that figure, he is at least off to a promising start for fantasy managers.

Happ went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Happ and Alex Bregman accounted for all of Chicago's offense Sunday, with Bregman going deep twice and Happ once. For the latter, it was his second long ball in as many games. Happ is locked in as the Cubs' No. 3 hitter most days, and with a strong lineup around him that was boosted by the offseason addition of Bregman to bat second, the veteran outfielder could be in store for an excellent fantasy campaign.

Happ went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in Saturday's 10-2 win over the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Happ batted third and connected for his first home run of the season in the sixth inning. The veteran outfielder blasted 23 long balls during the regular season last year, and he's hit 20 or more in four of the last five seasons while playing at least 148 games each year. Happ should continue to serve as an offensive catalyst for the Cubs batting near the top of the order.

Happ said Chicago's front office has yet to approach him about a possible contract extension this spring, but he's open to the possibility if it arises, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Happ is entering the final year of a three-year, $61 million contract extension he signed back in 2023. The veteran outfielder said he's open to discussing another extension, but the team has yet to approach him. Happ, who will turn 32 in August, has been a steady performer for the Cubs in recent years. He's recorded at least 20 home runs and 75 RBI in each of the last three seasons, and while he's only a career .247 hitter, Happ has been able to offset that with a strong on-base percentage. Chicago may not be in a hurry to commit to a player who has plenty of wear on the tires, though Happ has not shown any real signs of slowing down yet.

Happ went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in Thursday's 6-0 win over the Brewers in Game 4 of the National League Division Series.

EDGE Analysis

After Nico Hoerner and Kyle Tucker reached base in the bottom of the first inning, Happ cashed in with a three-run homer, which proved to be enough offense to win the game and even the series. The homer was Happ's second of the playoffs, though he's struggled overall with a .115 average (3-for-26) and 11 strikeouts this postseason.

Happ went 2-for-4 with a walk, a home run and three RBI in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

Happ and Moises Ballesteros hit back-to-back home runs in the first inning, giving the former 23 long balls for the season. The veteran outfielder has been in a nice groove this month, as he's batting .321 with five homers, 10 RBI and 12 runs scored across 15 September games. Happ now needs two more long balls to match his career high of 25, which he recorded back in 2021 and again last year.

Happ went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Happ took Adrian Houser deep in the sixth inning for his 22nd home run of the season. The veteran outfielder is approaching his career high of 25 long balls, which he recorded back in 2021 and then matched last year. Happ has gone deep five times in his last 13 games, and with the Cubs set to play 13 more contests during the regular season, he has a chance to set a new career best in homers if he keeps up his recent pace and stays in the lineup most days.

Happ went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double, a home run and an additional RBI in Friday's 6-4 victory over Tampa Bay.

EDGE Analysis

The left fielder continued his strong start to September and has a .333/.435/.615 slash line with two doubles, three homers and a 7:10 BB:K through 10 contests this month. Happ struggled through most of the first half of the season but has delivered a .900 OPS in 37 games since the start of August.

Happ went 1-for-2 with three walks, a solo home run and four total runs scored in Friday's 11-5 win over the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Happ demonstrated both his patient eye at the plate as well as his burgeoning power stroke. The veteran outfielder now has 20 home runs in a season for the fifth time in his nine-year MLB career, and he's gone deep four times in his last seven games. Dating back to the beginning of August, Happ is batting .282 with five home runs, 15 RBI and 18 runs scored across 31 contests.

Happ went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a stolen base and two total runs scored in Monday's 7-6, extra-inning win over Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

Happ extended his hitting streak to six games, and during that time, he's gone 11-for-25 with the stolen base, three home runs, six runs scored and eight RBI. The veteran outfielder has gone deep on consecutive days, pushing him up to 19 home runs for the season. Happ seems to be rounding into form just in time for the Cubs' stretch run, which is a boon for fantasy managers as well.
