The Chicago Cubs have to send their rookie pitcher back to IL after his latest injury.
As Chicago announced their roster moves for the day, it included moving rookie pitcher Jordan Wicks back to the IL for another stint. The corresponding move was to recall Keegan Thompson from Triple-A.
The Arkansas native mostly utilizes a solid fastball and changeup combo on the mound, but has a few breaking balls that he mixes in as well. While he doesn't have the biggest arm, he gets batters to miss at an above average rate. Though he hasn't improved much from his rookie season in terms of actual numbers, there are still things to like from his season when he actually pitches.
