Resumes light activities Heyward (knee) was cleared Sunday to participate in light baseball activities and light running, Taylor McGregor of Marquee Sports Network reports.
Impact The Cubs haven't indicated whether Heyward will eventually need a minor-league rehab assignment before being activated from the 10-day injured list, but since he's only doing light activities at this point, he doesn't look on track to return before the All-Star break. Heyward has been on the IL since June 30 with right knee inflammation.

Lands on 10-day IL Heyward (knee) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday, retroactive to June 27, Tim Stebbins of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
Impact Heyward was slated to miss a fifth consecutive game Thursday, but he'll land on the injured list after being diagnosed with inflammation in his right knee. The 32-year-old has progressed slowly in his recovery over the last several days, and it's not yet clear when he'll be able to return from the injured list. Narciso Crook's contract was selected to provide additional outfield depth, at least until Seiya Suzuki (finger) is able to return.
