The Cubs placed catcher Kyle Schwarber on the 15-day disabled list with torn ligaments in his left knee (ACL and LCL) and a severe left ankle sprain, and recalled infielder Munenori Kawasaki from Triple-A Iowa.
Kyle Schwarber, 23, suffered his season ending injury in the second inning of Thursday night’s game.
Munenori Kawasaki, who will wear uniform number 66, will be available for the Cubs on Friday as they continue their four-game series at the Arizona Diamondbacks.
