Cubs trying to get healthy as August begins to wind down

One of the main goals for the Cubs over the final two months of the regular season is to get healthy again and slowly, they’re getting closer to that goal.

Right-hander Adbert Alzolay and catcher Willson Contreras played catch before Monday’s game against the Reds. It was the beginning of baseball activity for Alzolay after he landed on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain.

“[Adbert] feels good,” manager David Ross said. “He’s gonna work his way back and the trainers are on top of that. He’s just moving around. Doesn’t seem like it was anything very serious and it feels good.
