CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Cubs recalled
left-hander Tom Cosgrove from Triple-A Iowa on Sunday.
The 28-year-old Cosgrove was acquired in an April 10 trade with
San Diego. He pitched four scoreless innings over three
appearances with Iowa.
Cosgrove made his big league debut with the Padres in 2023,
going 1-2 with a 1.75 ERA in 54 appearances. But the reliever
had an 11.66 ERA in 18 games with San Diego last year.
“Had a good year, 2023 in San Diego was really good,” Cubs
manager Craig Counsell said. “He struggled last year, and we
think there's some things we can do just to try to get him back
on track. Hopefully he's in a good spot.”
Right-hander Ethan Roberts was optioned to Iowa to make room on
Chicago's roster. Roberts allowed four runs and three hits in
two innings during Saturday's 10-4 loss to Philadelphia.
Cubs closer Ryan Pressly made his first appearance in a week
when he pitched the ninth inning in Sunday night's 10-inning
loss to the Phillies. Pressly, 36, had his right knee drained on
Tuesday night.
Right-hander Ryan Brasier, coming back from a left groin strain,
threw a bullpen on Saturday. Counsell said the reliever is
scheduled for another bullpen Tuesday before advancing to live
batting practice sessions.
