Chicago Cubs Minor League Wrap: August 19

The rain shortened the schedule tonight.

There were several moves in the minor league system today, but the biggest one was 2019 first-round pick Ryan Jensen going to Double-A Tennessee.

The Iowa Cubs were branded as heretics by the St. Paul Saints (Twins), 9-4.

Starter Matt Swarmer took the loss after allowing six runs on seven hits over six innings. One of the six runs was unearned. Swarmer gave up two runs in the first inning and four in the sixth. He was better in the middle. Swarmer struck out six and walked one.
