As the big-league incarnation of the Chicago Cubs struggles to get their offense going, some of the teams top prospects in Iowa are already off to a white-hot start to their Triple-A season.
Outfielder Nelson Velazquez has also been red-hot to begin the year, going 6-for-13 against the Clippers. That included a home run and a pair of RBI’s as he looks to force the Cubs to bring him back into the big league fold.
Matt Mervis also began this season in Iowa after his meteoric rise through the minor league system last year, and he has already scored five runs for the Cubs in the first three games. Naturally, he also “mashed” his first home run of the season during that stretch, while driving in three RBI’s. — MLB Pipeline <a href="https://twitter.com/MLBPipeline/status/1641984515454189570
