With outfielder Cody Bellinger heading to the injured list with two fractured ribs, the Cubs called up top prospect Pete Crow-Armstrong.
Counsell said after Tuesday's game that the X-rays on Bellinger were clean, but a CT scan on Wednesday revealed the injury. A timeframe of his return in unclear, Counsell said."He woke up feeling good. Unfortunately just revealed what's there," Counsell said."... He has to get symptom-free first and then we'll go from there.Bellinger, in the midst of a seven-game hitting streak, is batting .226 with five home runs and 17 RBIs.
Crow-Armstrong, 22, made his MLB debut last September and went 0-for-14 with three walks. He's batting .203 with two home runs, five doubles and seven RBIs at Triple-A Iowa this season. Suzuki has been out since April 14 because of a right oblique strain. Counsell said he has resumed baseball activities and could be ready to go on a rehab assignment shortly after the team returns from its upcoming seven-game road trip.
"When you lose, I think, Seiya, when you lose Cody, players like that, your offense doesn't improve. You know, it can't, right?" Counsell said. "Frankly what your goal is in those situations is to, there's going to be a little bit of a drop-off, but you hope to minimize it as much as you can. And I do think we're in that position, to just minimize maybe their absences a little bit."
