Hunter Harvey Placed on 15-Day Injured List Due to Triceps Inflammation
Chicago Cubs reliever Hunter Harvey (triceps) has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to right triceps inflammation, per Elise Menaker of Marquee Sports Network. The Cubs recalled left-handed pitcher Charlie Barnes from Triple-A Iowa as the corresponding move. Across four innings (four games) before getting injured, Harvey recorded a 6.75 ERA and 1.50 WHIP with four strikeouts. The hard-throwing right-hander has shown flashes of high-leverage effectiveness at points throughout his career, but he's had a difficult time staying healthy in recent seasons. Harvey was limited to just 12 appearances in 2025 by shoulder and adductor issues. In his absence, the Cubs will likely rely more heavily on relievers Ben Brown and Caleb Thielbar as the bridge to closer Daniel Palencia.
