Earns win in return

Imanaga (4-2) earned the win against the Cardinals on Thursday, allowing one hit and one walk while striking out three over five scoreless innings.

Analysis

Imanaga didn't show much rust in his return from the injured list, throwing 49 of 77 pitches for strikes while giving up just two hard-hit balls. Through nine starts this season, the southpaw has allowed two earned runs or fewer seven times while surrendering five in his other two outings. He'll carry a 2.54 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 37:15 K:BB across 49.2 innings into a home matchup with the Guardians next week.

Activated for Thursday's start

The Cubs activated Imanaga (hamstring) from the 15-day injured list Thursday.

Analysis

Imanaga is set to rejoin the Cubs' rotation Thursday with a start in St. Louis after being out since early May with a strained left hamstring. The left-hander threw 72 pitches and went 4.1 innings in his final rehab outing with Triple-A Iowa, so he's likely to have a somewhat limited workload against the Cardinals.

Rejoining rotation Thursday

Cubs manager Craig Counsell said Monday that Imanaga (hamstring) will rejoin the rotation Thursday in St. Louis, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Analysis

Counsell had already revealed that Imanaga's next start would come in the big leagues, and now the skipper has revealed the exact day. The southpaw has been shelved since early May with a strained left hamstring. Imanaga threw 72 pitches and went 4.1 innings in his final rehab outing, so he will have a somewhat restricted workload against the Cardinals.

Making next start in majors

Manager Craig Counsell said Saturday that Imanaga (hamstring) will return from the 15-day injured list to make his next start with the Cubs sometime next week, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.

Analysis

The skipper didn't say exactly what day Imanaga will return from the IL, but the 31-year-old southpaw will most likely start at some point during the Cubs' upcoming series in St. Louis. Imanaga didn't allow a run in 10.1 innings across three rehab outings in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League and at Triple-A Iowa. He most recently pitched Friday for Iowa, striking out eight batters over 4.1 shutout frames while building up to 72 pitches.
