Cubs Officially Place Anthony Rizzo On Disabled List, Call Up Efren Navarro
The Chicago Cubs have officially placed first basemanAnthony Rizzo (back) on the 10-day disabled list with back tightness. Rizzos disabled list stint will be backdated to this past Friday and that will allow him to be activated next Monday versus the Cardinals. Journeyman first baseman Efren Navarro will take his spot on the roster and hold minimal value. Ben Zobrist and Victor Caratini figure to get the bulk of the starts at first base. Zobrist is swinging the bat well and is worth a short-term pickup as long as he continues to hit.
