Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Marcus Stroman delivers during a baseball game against the Cincinnati Reds Monday, July 31, 2023, in Chicago. He hasn’t pitched in a game since.

Cubs right-hander Marcus Stroman’s reevaluation Monday in Chicago revealed that the fracture in his rib cartilage is healing, but it didn’t provide a concrete timeline for his return.

Stroman is cleared to continue with light activity, which the Cubs hope will help support his progression whenever he eventually ramps up in a throwing program.

“Where it goes from here now is the real important thing,” manager David Ross said Tuesday.
