Don't look now, but Jason Heyward is becoming the most dangerous hitter in the Chicago Cubs lineup. Yeah, Anthony Rizzo's been awesome for the last two weeks, but Heyward has now reached base in all of his 17 games this season. Now, Heyward keeps hammering home runs.
He hit two home runs against the Cincinnati Reds and in the first inning on Monday, Heyward slugged a three-run home run against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
These aren't cheap home runs either. This one was 403 feet to right-center field.
It's been a great sign that he's hitting, hitting it hard, but on that pitch he went out and attacked a fastball, which was his biggest problem last year. Stay hot Jason Heyward.
