The More; The Merrier
Cubs “expanded” their roster today by adding 4 Triple A players and taking 2 off of the disabled list.
Michael Wuertz, Micah Hoffpauir, Koyie Hill and Casey McGehee are coming from Triple A Iowa.
And Angel Guzman and Jon Lieber are coming off of the disabled list.
Expanding the roster this time of season is a very good thing for the Cubs.
1. It gives the starters a rest
2. The Triple A players get some playing time and experience
3. Adding 4 Triple A players only makes their roster richer and healthier.
The Cubs play the Astros today at 3:05 CT. I’ll write more during gametime. Peace.
“It’s always nice for those guys to get a taste of it. Some of them, I hope they’re ready to come up and contribute because we need them”
