The Cubs quietly demoted José Cuas to Triple-A Iowa late Thursday. I say “quietly” because no press release was issued; some of us simply noticed the move posted on the Cubs transactions page.
Cuas has not pitched well this year, after being reasonably good after being acquired by trade in 2023. This year he has a 9.00 ERA in five outings covering six innings.
At the time, no corresponding 26-man roster move was announced, but now we know that move.
Righthander Keegan Thompson has been recalled from Iowa. This move has not yet been officially announced by the team, but this would seem to be a good source:
The Cubs are calling up Keegan Thompson to the big league club, Craig Counsell told the @ParkinsSpiegel Show.
