As expected, the Cubs announced further roster cuts Saturday morning, just as they did last Saturday morning:
Cubs moves this morning...
Optioned to Triple-A:
Norwood
Underwood
Wick
Reassigned to Minors camp:
Bergman, Carasiti, Kontos, Mekkes, Zagurski, Court, Evans, Giambrone, Short, Adduci, Arcia, Higgins
Spring field trimmed to 40.— Jordan Bastian (@MLBastian) March 16, 2019As was the case with the previous round of cuts, none of these should surprise you at all. James Norwood and Rowan Wick will almost certainly be on the Iowa Shuttle this year.
