Cubs reliever Brandon Hughes landed on the 15-day injured list with inflammation in his left knee for the second time this season. His move to the IL made room for Caleb Kilian, who made a spot start Saturday, on the roster.
Hughes’ left knee injury, which flared up this spring, stems from a 2015 surgery to repair his meniscus. The fact that the inflammation is recurring, when he’s successfully managed the issue up to this point, is a cause for some concern.
