CHICAGO -- The Cubs activated Carl Edwards Jr. from the 10-day disabled list before Friday's series opener against the Reds at Wrigley Field.
Edwards said he feels 100 percent healthy after being out with right shoulder inflammation since May 30.
The 26-year-old right-hander was originally scheduled to make two appearances during his rehab assignment with Triple-A Iowa, but a third one ended up being necessary after he retired just two of the five batters he faced in his second outing on Monday.
"It's great to have him back," Cubs manager Joe Maddon said.
