Chicago Cubs reliever Yency Almonte placed on Injured List, José Cuas recalled from Iowa to replace him.

The Chicago Cubs have placed reliever Yency Almonte on the Injured List due to a right shoulder strain. José Cuas has been recalled from Iowa to replace him in the bullpen. Almonte and Mark Leiter Jr. have been the Cubs' most reliable later-inning arms, so this injury further adds to the team's early-season injury list. Cuas, a right-handed pitcher, will have to step up and perform as effectively as Almonte had.
