It’s time to call up Ian Happ

The trade deadline is coming up and the Cubs might be looking to add some offense. In particular, there are two positions that have been weak spots in the Cubs lineup this year: second base and center field. There are a few trade rumors out there connecting the Cubs to a bat that would bolster their offense.

But before the Cubs give up some top prospects for a bat, they need to give Ian Happ another shot.

The switch-hitting Happ played 257 games for the Cubs in the majors over the 2017 and 2018 seasons.
