Cubs' Eddie Butler: Lands on DL

Butler was placed on the 7-day DL with Triple-A Iowa on Wednesday with a rolled ankle, Carrie Muskat of MLB.com reports.

Analysis:

The injury isn't thought to be overly serious, and Butler should only miss one or two starts. The 26-year-old is off to a nice start at Iowa, posting a 1.46 ERA through 24.2 innings (four starts) this season.
