FRIDAY: Sanchez has cleared waivers and been outrighted to Triple-A Iowa, according to Gordon Wittenmyer of the Chicago Sun-Times (on Twitter).
TUESDAY: The Cubs announced that they have designated right-hander Eduardo Sanchez for assignment. The move will create room for the newest member of the Cubs, Henry Rodriguez.
Sanchez, 24, was claimed off of waivers from the Cardinals back in May. In 43 career relief appearances for St. Louis, Sanchez posted a 3.40 ERA with 9.6 K/9 and 5.8 BB/9. He pitched in six games for the Cubs' Triple-A affiliate this year and allowed eight runs while tallying seven strikeouts and seven walks.
