Cubs Place Marcus Stroman On IL With Hip Injury
The Cubs have placed right-hander Marcus Stroman on the 15-day injured list with
right hip inflammation, retroactive to August 1, with Meghan Montemurro of The
Chicago Tribune among those to relay the info. His roster spot will go to right-
hander José Cuas, who was acquired from the Royals yesterday.
Stroman, 32, got off to a great start this year, as he carried a 2.28 earned run
average after his start on June 20. With him succeeding and the club flounderin
g, he became a popular trade candidate leading up to the deadline but their fort
unes have flipped in recent weeks. Stroman has allowed 30 earned runs in 30 inni
ngs over his last seven starts as the Cubs have surged back into contention, eve
ntually deciding to buy instead of sell. They held onto Stroman and Cody Belling
er, in addition to acquiring Jeimer Candelario.
Now the club will have to proceed with their postseason race without Stroman, at
least for a little while. He told reporters today, including Maddie Lee of the
Chicago Sun-Times, that he received a cortisone shot and the plan is for him to
miss just one start. If he can get back to health and back to his previous form,
that would obviously be a boon to the club.
For now, they will proceed with a rotation of Justin Steele, Drew Smyly, Jameson
Taillon and Kyle Hendricks. They will need a fifth starter at some point, which
could be Hayden Wesneski, though he’s been pitching out of the big league bull
pen of late. Some of the other options on the 40-man roster include Ben Brown an
d Caleb Kilian. They are currently three games back in the National League Wild
Card race.
Stroman is in the second season of a three-year deal that he signed with the Cub
s prior to 2022. He can opt out of the final year of that pact, leaving $21MM on
the table. If he returns healthy and effective, it should be an easy decision f
or him to turn that down and secure himself a larger guarantee on the open marke
t this winter. If the issue were to linger into the offseason, that could perhap
s change his calculus, though there’s been nothing to suggest that’s likely to
be the case.
