2 years agoChicago Cubs starting pitcher Drew Smyly (oblique) has been activated from the 15-day injured list and is starting on Sunday against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The veteran southpaw has been out since late May with a right oblique strain and posted a 2-5 record, 3.80 ERA, 1.27 WHIP, and 34:10 K/BB ratio over 42 2/3 innings (nine starts) so far this season. Pitcher Michael Rucker was optioned to Triple-A Iowa in a corresponding move. Smyly can be viewed as a steady, albeit low-upside, fantasy option moving forward.--Jon Mathisen - RotoBaller
