The Chicago Cubs finally recalled the “It” prospect of the season Thursday night, purchasing the contract of third baseman Kris Bryant. He will bat fourth in the lineup against the Padres today, right after fellow young guns Jorge Soler and Anthony Rizzo.
As you can imagine, Cubs fans are beyond giddy about this — and we are too! Not because we’re pro-Cubs, but because we get to introduce Bryant’s girlfriend, Jessica Delp.

What you need to know about Delp:

- Delp’s Twitter reveals that she’s more than tuned in to everything MLB
- Graduated from UNLV
- She can’t believe Kris hit a home run over the head of Will Ferrell
So, seeing @KrisBryant_23 hit a homer over Will Ferrell's head…yeah not weird at all #FerrellTakesTheField #BryantsBombSquad
