Iowa Cubs outfielder Brennen Davis was put on the injured list with a back fracture. Team president Jed Hoyer said that Davis will miss “an extended amount of time.” This is yet another blow to the Cubs former top prospect who has simply not been able to stay healthy over the past three seasons.
The I-Cubs activated infielder Luis Vazquez off the injured list.
There is also a report that right-hander Brandon Birdsell has been promoted to Iowa, but that has not been confirmed by the team.
