Craig Counsell Announces Shakeup to Cubs Bullpen

Chicago Cubs manager Craig Counsell announced Wednesday afternoon that there will be a slight shakeup to the bullpen as the team will place struggling relief pitcher Porter Hodge on the 15-day injured list. The right-handed pitcher missed nearly six weeks earlier this season with an oblique and then hip issue and now the second-year reliever is dealing with a shoulder problem.

Hodge made his return to the team on June 25, and has made five appearances since his initial stint on the injured list.
