    If the list seems curious for its contender bent, its by design: Bumgarners reps seem to have carefully selected the teams most apt to pursue the lefty for a pennant push later this season. High-profile players can often negotiate some sort of compensatory bonus if theyre moved to a team on their restricted list at any point during that contract, a...

    Atlanta, it seems, is the dead giveaway here Bumgarner grew up deep in the North Carolina hills, the nether regions of the far-reaching heart of Braves country, and was raised a die-hard Atlanta devotee. Hed surely jump at the opportunity to join a pennant-chasing Braves team, one that will likely have rising stars Mike Soroka and Max Fried on a s...

    As Alex Pavlovic of NBC Bay Area explains, theres been no indication that Bumgarner will block deals to any of the teams included on his list, though explicit comments from the hurler on the matter are as yet in the dark. SNYs Andy Martino tweets that the Yankees, Bumgarners most-connected suitor, are not particularly high on the lefty, an impressi...

    Theres also the matter of Giants majority owner Charles Johnson, of whom Bumgarner is said to be a favorite, and an ownership group thats always willing to shell out for hometown stars of seasons past. The Bumgarner saga may drag on well into the summer, but its still a distinct possibility the lefty will stay in San Fran for the long haul.

    The Cubs have activated left-hander Xavier Cedeno from the injured list to make his 2019 debut, per MLB.coms Jordan Bastian (via Twitter). In a corresponding move, right-hander Allen Webster takes Cedenos slot on the injured list with radial nerve inflammation in his throwing arm. 3:20pm: Russell is in tonights lineup, playing second base and batti...

    Webster, meanwhile, already hit a career high in appearances with 12 so far this season in Chicago, though his 11 total innings have a ways to go before catching the 59 innings he threw as a starter for the Red Sox back in 2014. Results have been underwhelming for Webster in 2019, 4.91 ERA to 5.48 FIP while surrendering 11.5 hits per nine innings.

    Russell recently finished a 40-game suspension issued under the MLB-MLBPA Joint Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault and Child Abuse Policy. His former wife has alleged a variety of abusive actions during their marriage.

    The Cubs initially optioned Russell to Triple-A, though his stay proved short. A lifetime .242/.313/.392 hitter through nearly two thousand MLB plate appearances, he carries a .222/.357/.467 batting line in 56 PA this year at the highest level of the minors.

    Russell is five days away from passing into the 4+ MLB service class. Assuming he stays up, hell be eligible for arbitration twice more before qualifying for free agency.

    De La Cruz, 24, received an 80-game suspension last July after testing positive for the banned substance furosemide. Hed been working through his first season at the Double-A level and struggling a bit, having pitched to a 5.24 ERA with diminished control through 16 starts. De La Cruz was the Cubs top-ranked prospect by some outlets back in 2017 bu...

    The 25-year-old Russell wont accrue service time on his optional assignment, of course, and its not clear when hell return to the Majors. President of baseball operations Theo Epstein suggested that the time in Triple-A will serve as a means of allowing Russell to get up to speed after the early downtime, which could point to several weeks in the m...

    Morrow had been shut down recently after experiencing a setback in his rehab effort. He underwent elbow surgery last November after problems in and around the joint cost him the latter half of the 2018 season.

    The Cubs have placed reliever Drew Smyly on waivers to try to offload his salary, and have outrighted infielder David Bote to Triple-A Iowa. They have also claimed right-hander Gavin Hollowell from the Diamondbacks and optioned him to Iowa.
