In case you missed it, Jordan Wicks was scratched from his scheduled start in Indianapolis this afternoon. The Cubs said the move was not injury-related.
I think it’s safe to assume this move was made in preparation for a promotion to Chicago. Or the front office is just messing with our heads.
With the ACL Cubs season over, outfielder Brennen Davis continues his rehab assignment in South Bend. He did not play tonight, however.
Iowa Cubs
The Iowa Cubs lost to Indianapolis (Pirates), 9-4.
Samuel Reyes got the emergency start and acquitted himself well: no runs on two hits over three innings.
