Julio Borbon has stolen three bases since he joined the Cubs last month.
Borbon hasn't been playing enough to warrant an update over the past month (he's logged more than two at-bats in a game just twice since the Cubs claimed him off waivers from the Rangers on April 19). If he can secure some playing time over the summer, Borbon will be useful in NL-only formats in the batting average and steals departments. Chicago has displayed no willingness to exercise their atrophying 27-year-old outfielder, however.
May 19 - 2:44 AM
Cubs claimed OF Julio Borbon off waivers from the Rangers.
The Rangers were unable to find a trade partner to unload Borbon, but plenty of teams surely put in a waiver claim for him, and the Cubs got him. He'll back up David DeJesus in center field for now but is a candidate for increased playing time down the road with a number of the Cubs' outfielders likely to be on the trade block.
Apr 19 - 1:30 PM
CBS Sports' Jon Heyman reports that Julio Borbon will be placed on waivers after the Rangers were unable to find a trade partner.
Borbon drew plenty of interest, but the Rangers were unable to make a match and will now likely lose him for nothing. The Astros have been mentioned as a possibility and it would be surprising if they didn't take a chance on him. We should learn more about his status soon.

Jon Heyman on Twitter
T.R. Sullivan of MLB.com hears the Rangers' optimism has faded to find a trade partner for Julio Borbon.
Borbon was designated for assignment last week, but the Rangers haven't found a trade partner who is willing to clear a spot on their roster. He's now expected to be claimed off waivers instead. For what it's worth, Jon Heyman of CBS Sports hears that the Orioles will not make a trade for Borbon. Teams like the Astros, Mets, and Twins have been mentioned as possible fits.

Steve Clevenger
D.L.
Steve Clevenger (oblique) caught two bullpen sessions on Monday.
He's also throwing from 120-130 feet and is expected to start swinging a bat early next week. Clevenger is on the 60-day DL and won't be eligible to return until mid-June. He should have no trouble being ready at that time, though he's not a given to return to the big club.

Matt Garza
D.L.
Matt Garza (lat) will return from the disabled list to start Tuesday's game against the Pirates.
Garza threw six scoreless innings in a rehab start with Triple-A Iowa earlier this week, so he shouldn't be on a strict pitch count in his season debut and will provide an immediate upgrade to the Cubs' rotation. His return means Carlos Villanueva will be relegated to a bullpen role.

Scott Baker

Scott Baker (elbow) did some light tosses from a distance of 45 feet Monday.
It was Baker's first time throwing since he was shut down near the end of spring training with a right elbow strain. The Cubs will know a lot more about his timetable once he starts to build up his workload.

Arodys Vizcaino
D.L.
Cubs manager Dale Sveum said Tuesday that Arodys Vizcaino (elbow) is a couple weeks away from appearing in a game.
He is presumably referring to an extended spring training game. Vizcaino, who will continue his rehab with the Cubs rather than at the club's spring training facility, is expected back around midseason.
