Cubs roster move: Carl Edwards Jr. to injured list, Tim Collins recalled

Carl Edwards Jr. has pitched quite well since being recalled from Triple-A Iowa at the beginning of May: 15 appearances, 2.03 ERA, 0.525 WHIP, 15 strikeouts in 13u2153 innings. He last pitched Sunday against the Cardinals.

Unfortunately, now he’s heading to the injured list:

A thoracic strain could wind up taking quite a while to heal, so the Cubs could be without CJ for some time.
