Cubs place OF Heyward on IL with left hamstring strain

The Chicago Cubs have placed outfielder Jason Heyward on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain

MAY 20, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Placed on injured list Heyward was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain Thursday, Tim Stebbins of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

Impact Heyward only had one plate appearance in Wednesday's loss to the Nationals, and he apparently sustained a hamstring injury during the contest. It's not yet clear whether he'll be able to return after spending the minimum amount of time on the shelf, but Nick Martini was recalled in a corresponding move and could see playing time in right field in Heyward's absence. Matt Duffy could also spend more time at third base if Kris Bryant sees time in right field.
