Shifts to 60-day IL
Amaya (oblique) was moved to the 60-day injured list Thursday, Jared Wyllys of AllCHGO.com reports.
Analysis
Amaya has been sidelined since May 25 with an oblique issue but has been on a rehab assignment since July 21. This move shouldn't affect his timeline to return significantly, but it does open a short-term spot on the 40-man roster for Willi Castro.

Shifts rehab to Triple-A
After playing in three rehab games for the Cubs' Arizona Complex League affiliate last week, Amaya (oblique) shifted his assignment to Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday and has appeared in two additional contests.
Analysis
Amaya has gone just 2-for-11 during his rehab assignment, but the important thing is that he appears healthy and hasn't experienced any setbacks. The catcher is likely nearing a return to the majors in the near future. Amaya should slot in as Carson Kelly's backup when he's back with Chicago, though the former will still see his fair share of playing time. The 26-year-old was slashing .280/.313/.505 through 27 games before getting hurt.
