A lot of movement today—unusual for a Thursday.
The Cubs signed left-hander Richard Bleier and assigned him to Iowa. Bleier had been released by the Red Sox earlier this month. He was 1-0 with a 5.28 ERA over 30.2 innings with the Red Sox, but he had been much better the past three years with the Marlins.
Lefty Bailey Horn was put on the temporarily inactive list.
Outfielder Parker Chavers and RHP Yovanny Cabrera were promoted to South Bend from Myrtle Beach.
And outfielder Brennen Davis starts a rehab assignment with the ACL Cubs.
