Owen Caissie Launches Two Long Balls on Tuesday
Owen Caissie went 2-for-5 with two home runs during their contest against Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday evening. This was Caissie's third multi-home run game since the start of the month. Since July 1, the top-ranked prospect in Chicago has posted a remarkable .462/.533/1.231 line with two doubles and six long balls. The former second-round pick has spent the entire campaign with Triple-A Iowa but is making a strong case to join the major leagues for the second half. Through 71 total games, Caissie has held a strong .282/.388/.575 slash line with 20 doubles and 18 home runs. Last season at Triple-A, Caissie logged 127 games and held a .278/.375/.472 line with 19 round-trippers. However, given Chicago's depth in the outfield, Caissie will likely need to wait for an injury to be given an extended look in the big leagues.
