Cubs' Kyle Schwarber: Activated from 60-day DL
Schwarber (knee) was activated from the 60-day DL on Saturday.
Analysis:
This move will allow Schwarber to play in the Arizona Fall League, starting Saturday as a member of Mesa's taxi squad. Schwarber was cleared to play, albeit with a brace on his knee, following his six-month checkup in Dallas on Monday. Manager Joe Maddon acknowledged that "there's a chance" Schwarber could be used as the DH in Cleveland if the Cubs advance to the World Series.
