In case you haven’t heard, infielder Nick Madrigal went on the 7-day injured list with a broken left hand after getting hit by a pitch yesterday. It’s a safe bet that he’ll miss more than seven games.
Iowa activated right-handers Eduarniel Nunez and Zac Leigh. Both had been on the Development List.
Catcher Caleb Knight was activated off the Development List and demoted to Double-A Tennessee.
Smokies outfielder Bradlee Beesley retired. We wish him the best going forward with whatever he does.
Iowa Cubs
The Iowa Cubs laid an egg against the Toledo Mud Hens (Tigers), 8-4.
