2:35 p.m.: Cubs announced the HAPP / BALLESTEROS exchange as well as Hodge landing on the IL. Right -handed Ethan Roberts was recalled as the corresponding movement for Hodge.
10:28 a.m.: The cubs are welcoming Ian Happ Back from the injured list for this evening match in Miami, the president of baseball operations, Jed Hoyer, told Mully & Haugh Show on 670 the score. Beginner Moisés Ballesteros will be optional in Triple-A iowa.
It is not the only movement to come. Manager Craig Counsell told Maddie Lee to Chicago Sun-Totes last night that Wear hodge Warm towards the 15 -day IL with a left oblique injury. They could remember someone in Triple-A this afternoon to take the place of the Hodge enclosure, although they may activate Ryan Brasier On his own passage instead.
The HAPP / BALLESTEROS exchange is a reversal of the movement of the alignment last week. Chicago placed the veteran voltiseur on the 10 -day IL, retroactive on May 10, with a left oblique strain. It was obviously very soft, because it is back after a minimal passage despite the trend of many oblique strains to linger for weeks. Ballesteros was called for the first time. Hoyer said this morning that Ballesteros knew at the time that it would be a brief promotion, no matter how much he played, because the cubs always intended to send him back once Happ came back from what they expected to be a minimal passage.
Ballesteros, 21, ratified at .368 / .420 / .522 Clip on 34 games in Iowa. He is a minor league striker .288 / .371 / .459. He did not produce much during his first overview of mlb pitch, going 3-16 with a pair of walks in five games. He hit a White Sox schooling single Yoendrys Gómez For his first big league on Friday and had his first multi-but effort during last night’s defeat against the Marlins.
Cubs used Ballesteros strictly as a shot in the name of last week. He is a polished offensive player but must continue to develop as a receiver in Iowa. Happ’s return to programming will push Seiya Suzuki Back to DH from the left field. Probably Happra backwards at the top of the order of the strikers. It strikes .269 / .364 / .381 to 187 plaques appearances.
Hodge, 24, was the most common choice of Counsell in high -effect situations. He granted an MPM from 5.12 to 19 1/3 rounds. Its 22.6% withdrawal rate is down compared to the excellent brand of 31.7% from last year. It is not a particularly strong production overall, although the dull era is mainly attributable to an explosion of six points in the hands of the diamondbacks a month ago. He granted three points deserved in 9 2/3 frames since this appearance, although with six sticks to the stick and walks each.
Ryan in a hurry Having entered the season while the Cubs are getting closer. He has not launched well and has not recorded a backup since April 13. Hodge had led a committee approach to the ninth round. Daniel Palencia Intensified one of the more reliable end -of -game weapons of Counsell. The Cubs called him to what would have been his first stop for the season last night. He entered the ninth round with an advance of 7-6 and quickly recorded the first two withdrawals before allowing a double, a walk and a triple of two rounds Jesús Sánchez.
