Just in time for the stretch run, Craig Counsell's club could soon be back at full strength.
Hopefully, the Chicago Cubs' blowout victory over the rival St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday night was a sign of things to come. Regardless, the team could soon get some critical reinforcements, with Miguel Amaya, Jameson Taillon and Javier Assad all nearing a return from the injured list.
Amaya seems likely to be the first to rejoin the club, based on Craig Counsell's pregame comments this weekend, which could end Reese McGuire's time in a Cubs uniform.
