Cubs' Aroldis Chapman: Presumably available Monday
Chapman is presumably available out of the Cubs' bullpen Monday after resting the previous two days.
Analysis:
It was reported Saturday that Chapman would get that night and Sunday off after throwing four times -- including both ends of a doubleheader -- in the prior four days, and he was not summoned from the bullpen either day as expected. Chapman did say Saturday that he would be good to go for Monday's game, so with his rest period behind him, expect him to be used in a save situation if one arises in Monday's matchup with the Padres.
