Cubs designate Carlos Gonzalez for assignment. It will be interesting to see if another team takes a chance on him. Otherwise, if he clears waivers, he winds up back in the Cubs minor league system. I hope that happens and I do hope he can make a comeback at some point in the near future. Kyle Hendricks is about to come off the injured list as Cole Hamels is placed on the injured list. Cubs are still in first place but this team is pretty banged up. I'm curious as to what moves, if any, are made before the trade deadline.
