Jonathon Long Goes Deep on Tuesday
Chicago Cubs first base prospect Jonathon Long went 2-for-5 with a home run during their contest against Triple-A Omaha on Tuesday evening. This was Long's 10th long ball of the campaign. Over his previous 11 contests, Long has posted a strong .325/.413/.425 slash line with a double and a home run. The 23-year-old made his Triple-A debut at the start of the campaign and has looked the part, posting a .313/.391/.473 slash line. He has tallied 11 doubles and shown a strong eye at the plate, holding a 56:35 K:BB. Last summer, Long spent time between High-A and Double-A, posting a cumulative .283/.391/.461 slash line with 21 doubles and 17 home runs. If Long can continue to produce at Iowa, he should be in the mix to join the major league roster during the stretch run.
