Cubs News: Jake Arrieta, Nico Hoerner, Dan Winkler Placed on Injured List

The Chicago Cubs placed starting pitcher Jake Arrieta (right thumb abrasion), utility man Nico Hoerner (left forearm strain) and reliever Dan Winkler (right biceps tendinitis) on the injured list on Tuesday, recalling southpaw Kyle Ryan, right-hander Keegan Thompson and infielder Ildemaro Vargas.

Both Arrieta and Winkler were placed on the IL retroactively to May 3.

Arrieta has been fairly durable of late and made at least 24 starts six years in a row from 2014 through 2019, although his 2019 campaign was cut short because of elbow surgery.

The right-hander signed with the Cubs this past offseason after spending three years with the Philadelphia Phillies.
