Earlier today, we checked in on the comeback campaigns of injured Cubs Addison Russell and Jake Arrieta – learning that while both seem close to making their returns, not many details of either’s plan had yet found the public.
Since then, there’s a bit more to share on those two, as well as a bit more on the statuses of Hector Rondon and Koji Uehara. So let’s catch back up on all four players, bullet-style.
