"Matthew Boyd is pitching today for the Iowa Cubs for his rehab outing, and it's gone well so far. I expect a relatively brief appearance for Boyd, who hasn't been down too long with the biceps strain, and who could then return to the Cubs' rotation the next time through if he comes out of today feeling fine."
"Cade Horton's elbow surgery is reportedly today. It'll either be an internal brace procedure or a full-on second Tommy John surgery, and the doctor won't know for sure what's needed until he gets in there. Either way, to be emotionally safe, I wouldn't expect to see Horton back until mid-2027."
"Hunter Harvey's triceps inflammation is not going to be a minimum IL stint, according to Craig Counsell, who says Harvey is still in a strengthening mode."
"Phil Maton (knee inflammation) is getting better and expected to throw off the mound next week. From there, it's just a matter of when he looks physically ready to return, and recovers quickly enough between throwing sessions to be activated."
Matthew Boyd is pitching for the Iowa Cubs in a rehab outing, potentially returning to the rotation soon. Justin Steele is on track for a late-May return. Cade Horton is undergoing elbow surgery, with a long recovery expected. Jordan Wicks is scheduled to pitch for Iowa after elbow inflammation. Hunter Harvey's triceps issue will require more time, while Phil Maton is improving and expected to throw off the mound soon. Trent Thornton and Kyle Wright are in rehab mode after being signed.
