The Chicago Cubs are facing a significant injury crisis as pitcher Ethan Roberts has been placed on the 15-day injured list after sustaining a hand injury from a falling vent. This unfortunate incident adds to the Cubs' woes, as they are already missing several key pitchers, including Matthew Boyd, Jordan Wicks, Phil Maton, and Cade Horton. With a current record of 8-9, the Cubs find themselves at the bottom of the National League Central standings. Manager Craig Counsell expressed frustration over the injury, labeling it as 'random bad luck.' To address their pitching shortage, the Cubs have called up Ryan Rolison and Luke Little from their Triple-A affiliate, the Iowa Cubs. Rolison has struggled with a 3.68 ERA in his appearances, while Little has excelled with a 3-0 record and nine strikeouts in 7.2 innings. The Cubs are scheduled to play the Philadelphia Phillies in their next matchup.
