Chicago Cubs: Robel Garcia continues to mash in minors

It was a little over a month ago when Chicago Cubs prospect Robel Garcia was playing in Tennessee and slashing .295/.391/.590 with a 183 wRC+ in 22 games. He was making a bit of a name for himself among Cubs fans and beat reporters who follow the minor leagues closely and his play earned him a promotion to Triple A.

The results with the Iowa Cubs so far have been just as good, a .310/.385/.647 slash with 11 home runs, 1.031 OPS and a 147 wRC+ in 32 games. He has four home runs in his past six games which includes two doubles, nine runs batted in and has reached base safely in every game this month but one so far.
