Who says the All-Star Game hangover period is boring? First we got news that Donn Roach had been claimed by the Reds and now comes word that Kyle Schwarber will be rejoining the Cubs in Atlanta after Miguel Montero’s injury was found to be significant.
With Miggy set to miss at least 2 weeks and as many as 6, according to at least one report, my initial thought was that Schwarber would immediately assume a big share of the catching duties. After all, you don’t call a guy up just to have him sit. But that doesn’t appear to be the case, at least not right away.
