Prior to the first of four games in three days against the Reds at Great American Ball Park, the Cubs made another round of roster moves. The Cubs activated outfielder Jason Heyward. And to make room on the roster, lefty reliever Randy Rosario was sent back to Iowa … on his birthday.
The Cubs active roster consists of 13 pitchers (five starters, eight relievers) and 12 position players. Heyward will be available off the bench for the opener of the series in Cincinnati.
