Owen Caissie Making Headlines In Single-A
2 years agoChicago Cubs outfield prospect Owen Caissie played hero on his birthday for High-A South Bend on Thursday. On the day that he turned 20 years of age, the Canadian went 2-for-4 with a walk-off grand slam. Caissie was part of the haul that the Cubs got from the Padres for starting pitcher Yu Darvish last offseason and is arguably the prospect with the biggest pedigree that the Cubs received. Caissie dominated Cubs rookie ball last season, but struggled with his promotion to Single-A later in the season. Fortunately for the Cubs and Caissie, he has brought his rookie ball results to High-A this season. On the year, the left-handed bat has hit .270 with seven home runs and 46 RBI. The outfielder offers plenty of raw power and at 6'4, he should continue to build strength as his body fills out. For now, he remains a few years away from making any impact in the fantasy community and is just a name for dynasty managers to keep tabs on.
