Sveum says Soto slight tear in meniscus. Will go on DL likely after the game.


Question is now who going to backup Castillo? Lali?

Slowed bat and conditioning issues probably meant he was never going to reclaim any trade value this year. This is the final nail in that coffin.

Sucks the Cubs couldn't get any value for him, but he was brutal this year.

I'm curious if the timing with Woods retirement is related. I don't believe the cubs have another catcher on the 40 man roster. So this move opens another 40 man roster spot to bring up a true backup until Clevenger is healthy.

40 man roster sits at 39. So even if KW didnt retire they have spot. There was a tweet this morning that Lalli would get the call. He already been told

Lalli is only a few months younger than Soto is.
