Cubs Minor League Wrap: July 8

Right-hander Thomas Mangus, the Cubs’ 18th-round pick last year, was promoted to Low-A Myrtle Beach from Mesa.

Iowa outfielder Owen Caissie was named International League Player of the Week.

Iowa outfielder Kevin Alcántara left tonight’s game with a leg injury. It is apparently something that he’s been dealing with for a few weeks, according to Tommy Birch of the Des Moines Register.

Also, Smokies right-hander Jaxon Wiggins has pulled out of the Futures Game. However, there is good news on that front.
