Cubs roster moves:

- Garrett Cooper DFA’d

- Kyle Hendricks (lower back) and Drew Smyly (hip impingement) to 15-day IL

- Matt Mervis, Hayden Wesneski and Luke Little recalled from Triple-A Iowa

It’s been 3,957 days since the last time the Astros came to Wrigley Field. The Cubs lineup on that day?

Luis Valbuena, 3B
Starlin Castro, SS
Nate Schierholtz, RF
Alfonso Soriano, LF
Anthony Rizzo, 1B
Ryan Sweeney, CF
Wellington Castillo, C
Darwin Barney, 2B
Jeff Samardzija, P

WOW.

With the news of Matt Mervis and Hayden Wesneski returning to the Cubs, could Kyle Hendricks be on the way to Iowa or Arizona to work on some things?

Corey Freedman and Brendan Miller discussed on what to do with Hendricks on Sunday.

Anyway … roster moves aside. Excited to see Mervis here who has been destroying baseballs for 18 games in Iowa this season. Someone I still have hope for just never knew how he was gonna fit here with Busch in the fold.

“You have to look at it as ‘What are the current needs of the Cubs right now?’ I think that’s how we have to look at it.”

Kyle Hendricks' future probably hinges on what happens in the coming weeks, regardless of what he's meant to the Cubs.
