Cubs fans get brutal Kyle Tucker update right before clinching
Tampa Bay Rays v Chicago Cubs | Matt Dirksen/GettyImagesAn injury that once was believed to be a day-to-day situation has suddenly turned into a nightmare scenario for the Chicago Cubs and Kyle Tucker. Before the Cubs' victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday, clinching the team's spot in the postseason, Craig Counsell revealed to reporters that Tucker was no longer with the team.
With no progress being made in the calf injury that has kept him sidelined for the last two weeks, Tucker, along with a member of the Cubs' training staff, is currently in Florida, consulting with his physical therapy team.
