CHICAGO — Cubs starter Jordan Wicks left Friday’s 3-0 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals due to a strained proper indirect and can seemingly be positioned on the injured checklist, supervisor Craig Counsell stated.
Wicks exited within the second inning. He walked off the sector accompanied by a coach after giving up a two-out single to Dylan Carlson. Kyle Hendricks got here in and retired Brendan Donovan on a grounder to second.
“He felt it a pair pitches earlier than, after which after he threw a pair extra pitches, knew he could not do any extra,” Counsell stated. “So, we’ll get imaging tomorrow and certain IL, and we’ll go from there.”
Wicks gave up two hits and struck out two in his first begin and second look since getting back from a strained left forearm. He was sidelined for six weeks.
