NEW YORK – The Cubs’ series finale against the Mets on Wednesday was the last game in a stretch of 16 straight without an off day.
“Can’t wait,” Cubs pitching coach Tommy Hottovy said.
The Cubs have three off days over the next week, and they’re taking advantage of the opportunity to adjust the rotation. Right-hander Marcus Stroman is on the injured list but still on track to be activated next week. Rookie Javier Assad remains in the rotation for a second turn.
