Cubs roster moves: Nico Hoerner to injured list, Brandon Hughes activated

Nico Hoerner hurt his hamstring running the bases on a cold night at Wrigley this past Monday [VIDEO].

At first Nico was listed as “day-to-day,” but Friday the Cubs put him on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to Tuesday, so he could return in seven days from now) and recalled infielder/outfielder Miles Mastrobuoni from Triple-A Iowa. Mastrobuoni was 4-for-20 in eight previous games for the Cubs this year.

Nico Hoerner is batting .303/.348/.395 (46-for-152) for the Cubs this year with two home runs and 12 stolen bases. Hopefully he’s back soon.
