Cubs' Miles Mastrobuoni: Moves up from Triple-A
The Chicago Cubs recalled Miles Mastrobuoni from Triple-A Iowa on Sunday.Back up for his fourth stint of the season with the Cubs, Mastrobuoni projects to fill a utility role for the big club, much like he did on the previous three occasions. As a left-handed batter, Mastrobuoni won't have a path to a short-side platoon role, so his playing time will likely be sparse in September unless the Cubs lose one of their lineup regulars to an injury.

Cubs' Miles Mastrobuoni: Returns to bench role
Miles Mastrobuoni is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.The lefty-hitting Mastrobuoni had been included in the lineup in each of the Chicago Cubs' last three matchups with right-handed pitchers, but the uptick in playing time looks to have been the result of outfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong being unavailable due to a thumb injury. After serving as a pinch runner in Tuesday's 9-2 win, Crow-Armstrong has received the green light to re-enter the starting nine Wednesday for the first time in a week, so Mastrobuoni will head back to the bench.
