The Cubs announced that they have designated Cody Ransom for assignment. The move allows the club to activate pitcher Scott Baker from the 60-day disabled list.
Ransom, 37, did well at the plate for the Cubs this season, hitting .203/.304/.449 in 57 games. The Cubs first acquired the veteran off waivers in mid-April after the Padres waived him. For his career, the infielder owns a .213/.303/.400 slash line.
