WATCH: Javy rips three-run homer vs. Rangers

El Mago might be a comeback player-type candidate in 2021.

Cubs shortstop Javy Baez crushed a three-run homer to straightaway center in the fifth inning to extend the Cubs lead to 7-0.

Baez was thinking of a first-pitch fastball and didn't miss it at all.

It was his first homer of the spring, and it was at least 420 feet.

Check out the homer below:
