Episode Details

Chicago Cubs reliever Daniel Palencia, a key arm with a 2.70 ERA and 3 saves this season, is sidelined on the 15-day injured list due to right elbow inflammation — a setback that echoes his earlier oblique strain and adds to a pitching staff already reeling from six other injuries, including multiple Tommy John cases. The team has recalled Gavin Hollowell from Triple-A Iowa to fill the void, as Palencia’s recent dip in velocity and a walk to start his last outing raised red flags. With the Cubs’ bullpen under fire, this latest injury could ripple through their playoff hopes.
