By Saturday, eight of the Cubs who were in the Opening Day lineup were out of the organization or otherwise unavailable, including Frank “The Tank” Schwindel, who was DFA’d.
On Saturday alone, right fielder Seiya Suzuki left on paternity leave; struggling left-hander Sean Newcomb was designated for assignment; and Frank “The Tank” Schwindel was DFA’d barely a month after having been demoted to Triple-A Iowa.
“There’s also expectations that I still have that we’re not meeting as a team yet. I don’t want to lose sight of that,” he said. Underscoring his larger point, Jared “JY” Young, 27, was back in the lineup as the DH Saturday, the day after becoming the 16th player to make a big-league debut for the Cubs this year.He then became not only the 17th to debut but also the 63rd player used overall, six short of the major-league record the Cubs set last year .Both numbers are every bit as damning as the 83 losses that assure a second straight losing season since the roster teardown began in the fall after the 2020 season.
