CHICAGO -- The Cubs placed reliever Brad Boxberger on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a right forearm strain.
Boxberger finalized a one-year, $2.8 million contract with Chicago in December, but he had trouble staying healthy for much of the season.
The 35-year-old Boxberger was placed on the 15-day IL on May 15 with a right forearm strain. He was activated Sept. 8 and got into five games this month before landing on the IL again.
The right-hander is 0-1 with two saves and a 4.95 ERA in 22 games on the year.
