Cabrera and Boyd near return to Chicago Cubs rotation
Two Chicago Cubs pitchers are expected to rejoin the team's rotation after recovering from injuries. Edward Cabrera is slated to start this weekend, while Matthew Boyd is set to make a second rehab appearance on Saturday.
yardbarker.comEdward Cabrera and Matthew Boyd are close to returning to the Chicago Cubs rotation after missing time due to injuries. Cabrera is expected to start for the team this weekend. Boyd is scheduled to make a second rehab start for Triple-A Iowa on Saturday, and the plan calls for him to return to the Cubs if that outing goes well.
Left-hander Jordan Wicks was optioned to the minors after allowing 11 runs and 13 hits over 6 1/3 innings in two starts. Manager Craig Counsell said Tuesday that the team needs healthy bodies back and that signs point to both pitchers returning soon.
The Cubs have dealt with multiple rotation injuries this season. Right-hander Cade Horton is out for the year following elbow surgery, and Justin Steele's return timeline remains unclear after a setback in his recovery from an elbow injury.
