Being a lifelong Cubbie fan, purty much a Dodger fan these days because of the Wife, but still…Happer is my favourite Cubbie. He is the prototypical, consummate, bread n butter Big Leaguer. Not too extreme either way. Productive, can be clutch and always reliable. I just respect the Dude a ton. Always have.
…and don’t forget the day game where Kerry Wood casually struck out 20 Astros. The thing I’ve learned since a kid seeing games in Wrigley is that outfield…you don’t play Wrigley, it plays you. That wind and sun yes…but that brick wall don’t give an inch.
Incredibly fun episode! Was great getting to know Ian Happ as a person! Thank you Mookie, Happy, and Bleacher Report!

Mook you gotta come on the Compound now, my guy!
Gotta get these guys on the podcast next year!! Seager, Joc, Witt Jr, Bichette, Snell, Arenado, Bryant, Benintendi
Hahah. Ian Happ looked way too comfortable. Of course he has his own podcast. I bet he enjoys a nice cigar with some good whiskey.
and coffee
Parce Rum
happ is a cool dude
Love Happ!
So are we gonna get Mookie on the compound now that would be sweet
Happer is an elite guest
Love Happ but I was praying for an ep with Cody 🥲
I love Happ too, he's experienced in this from his podcast and very well spoken.
But Belli's vibe would be perfect for Mookie's interview style.
Haha Happ said he never faced Miller but Happ got the first hit Miller ever gave up in the big leagues on his debut. A double!
Happer!

Happer 😄☕
Someone has to make a short about the bird poop. Made me laugh my butt off. Wonder who will get the first opportunity to step under one first.
Cubs need to get some shit done for next year, Happer deserves a WS win
shohei
I love Mookie, but I wish I never saw this. Sunglasses on inside with a pillow on his lap and the other guys sitting like a princess.
Poor guy jealous of millionaires
Found something mookie isn't good at...hosting
Ian Happ? Out of all the cubs…
I'd of preferred Belinger or Busch, or a Japanese player for cubs choice.
Shut up
