Happ went 3-for-5 with two solo home runs in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Athletics. Happ did his part to keep Chicago in the game, including blasting his second home run of the game and 25th of the season in the ninth inning to get the Cubs a little closer, but it wasn't quite enough to secure a much-needed win. The veteran has now matched his career high of 25 long balls, which he last recorded back in 2021. He also set a new career high with his 85th RBI of the year on Tuesday, surpassing his 2023 total of 84. Happ has 11 team games remaining to try to set a new long-ball benchmark.

Happ went 2-for-5 with one RBI and two stolen bases in Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Rockies. Happ notched his fourth multi-hit effort over 12 games in September. He's 14-for-51 (.275) in that span, though he's supplied just two extra-base hits. The outfielder is up to 13 steals this year, one off his career high from last season. He's added a decent .244/.342/.450 slash line with 23 home runs, 82 RBI and 83 runs scored across 141 games.

Happ went 2-for-4 with a triple and two RBI in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Pirates. Happ hit just his second triple of the season as he continues to serve as an effective tablesetter for the Cubs. The veteran outfielder is batting a scorching .386 over his last 10 games with eight extra-base hits and 10 RBI. With a prominent spot in a productive lineup, Happ should continue to post good counting stats the rest of the way, especially if he keeps up his recent level of play.

Happ went 3-for-4 with a double, two runs scored, two RBI and two walks in Wednesday's comeback win over the Pirates. Happ led off the game with a double off Pirates ace Paul Skenes and later came around to score on a Cody Bellinger single. Happ helped the Cubs erase a seven-run deficit Wednesday, driving in runs in the eighth and ninth innings to propel the team to victory. The 30-year-old has enjoyed a productive August as the Cubs' leadoff man, batting .267 with six home runs, 12 RBI, 17 runs scored, eight doubles and four stolen bases in 24 games.

Happ went 2-for-3 with a walk and two stolen bases in Monday's 18-8 win over the Pirates. Happ somehow managed not to score despite serving as the leadoff man and reaching three times in the offensive explosion. Despite the lack of counting stats, it was still a productive night for the outfielder, as he reached 11 stolen bases on the season. Happ's career high in steals is 14, which he posted last year, and he may be able to surpass that figure yet in 2024.
