Nick Madrigal - Taking on primary duties at 2BMadrigal will start at second base and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Nationals.

ImpactWith David Bote having been optioned to Triple-A Iowa, Christopher Morel having been deployed in more of a utility role of late and with Zach McKinstry getting off to an 0-for-14 start to his Cubs career, Madrigal has gained traction as the team's primary option of second base since coming off the injured list last Tuesday. He'll pick up his fourth start in five games Monday.

Field of Dreams Game: Cubs, Reds unveil throwback uniforms

Franmil Reyes - Claimed by CubsReyes was claimed off waivers by the Cubs on Monday, Sahadev Sharma of The Athletic reports.

ImpactAfter being designated for assignment by the Guardians on Saturday, Reyes has found a new home in Chicago. The 27-year-old has struggled to a .213/.254/.350 slash line this year over 263 at-bats in 70 games this year, all of which are the lowest marks of his five-year career. It's unclear whether he will report to Triple-A Iowa with his new organization or join the big-league roster, as he still has two minor-league options remaining. With 101 career homers over 481 games, Reyes possesses superb power and could be a mainstay in the Cubs lineup if he can return to form down the stretch and into next season.
