Cishek To Injured List With Hip Issue

By Dylan A. Chase | August 10, 2019 at 7:53pm CDT

Hip inflammation will send Cubs reliever Steve Cishek to the injured list, according to a report from MLB.com’s Jordan Bastian. Bastian’s report characterizes Cishek’s ailment as “minor”, but one that has nonetheless been a hindrance to the righty in his last several appearances.

Cishek, a veteran of 556 MLB games, has been a solid member of the Chicago relief corps since signing a two-year/$13MM accord with the club in December of 2017. In 54 appearances in 2019, the Massachusetts native has recorded a 3.58 ERA, despite underlying metrics that indicate that he has been the beneficiary of some good luck to this point.

So far in 2019, the Chicago bullpen has seen more movement than O’Hare International–following this injured list placement, Pedro Strop and Tyler Chatwood are the only active relievers left from the Cubs’ Opening Day lineup. It doesn’t appear, however, that Cishek will be sidelined for a long period, and the club may soon welcome back Craig Kimbrel in time for its upcoming series against the Phillies.

    How’s things going tonight down there in Cincinnati? How come they walked that guy that hit 3 homeruns his first 3 at bats in his 4th at bat? I wanted to see him hit 5 homeruns in one game.

      The big question is how come you aren’t watching your own team?

          They were playing at the same time, I just watched my team win too and didn’t even realize the Cubs were playing. Isn’t that amazing

      He struck out his following at bat so it wouldn’t have mattered anyway… if you are a Cardinals fan… just worry about your own team as you’re still in 3rd place if I’m not mistaken…

      Remember when that didn’t happen. All the Cubs trolls went away on this site, time to clean up the South Side man.

      Karma is a bit$h!

      Cubbies no good. No one left to take the field.

      First Lester then Hendricks totally embarrassed.

      Cishek afraid to pitch for this team. I don’t blame him.

    Bout time Cubs started using the IL to rest their RP’s! Cishek needed a little time off…out of Joe’s reach! Refresh these guys for Sept!

      So a manager’s not supposed to use relievers now? Seriously cubs fans? Let’s just leave Lester or some other starter getting shelled in the game for nine innings. Girardi or any other manager will use the bullpen. It’s not the manager’s fault your bullpen sucks, your starters are mediocre, and no one in that pull-happy lineup can get a base hit with any regularity. That’s analytics (s****y) driven baseball for you courtesy of Theo Epstein and his puppet GM.
