Cubs Call Up Prospective Players Matt Mervis and Hayden Wesneski, Winning Over Club by Their Strong Performance

According to a report by Tommy Birch, the Cubs are calling up Matt Mervis and Hayden Wesneski. Birch, a beat reporter covering the Iowa Cubs, announced the news on Tuesday morning. The former Duke product impressed the club by performing well at three different levels in 2022, which earned him the team’s Minor League Player of the Year award. This year in Iowa, he has continued his strong performance, slashing .288/.402/.606 with five home runs.

Wesneski was recently called up for a day last week and threw four scoreless innings in relief against the Diamondbacks. The Cubs are set to host the struggling Astros for a three-game series starting at 6:40 p.m. on Tuesday. As of now, no corresponding moves have been made yet. There is speculation that Ian Happ may be one of the corresponding moves for Mervis and Wesneski as he left Friday’s game against the Marlins due to hamstring tightness and resulted in a 4-game series split between them.
