Cubs being cautious with Hoerner's rehab CHICAGO -- Cubs manager David Ross understands the frustration that Nico Hoerner must be feeling, given the setback in the infielder's comeb...

Not dealing with setback Hoerner was confirmed to have not re-injured his oblique Monday and will resume baseball activities soon, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact Hoerner has missed nearly a month with an oblique strain. He was pulled from his first rehab game Sunday, though the Cubs called his removal precautionary, and it turns out that he didn't actually suffer a significant setback. He should resume a rehab assignment soon, though exactly when remains unclear. The rebuilding Cubs have no need to rush him, as they're likely primarily concerned with his long-term health given their place in the standings.

Tweaks oblique in rehab game Hoerner was removed Sunday from his rehab game with High-A South Bend after experiencing increased tension along with right oblique, Tim Stebbins of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

Impact Hoerner began his third rehab stint of the season Sunday but played only two full innings before pulling himself out of the contest during his third-inning at-bat after an awkward swing. According to the Cubs, Hoerner's removal is being described as precautionary, but he'll be reassessed Monday before the team determines whether he'll need to be shut down again. If and when Hoerner makes it back from the 10-day injured list, the Cubs plan to give him a trial as their everyday shortstop now that Javier Baez is with the Mets, per Bruce Levine of 670TheScore.com.

Beginning rehab Sunday Hoerner (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with High-A South Bend on Sunday, Sahadev Sharma of The Athletic reports.

Impact The infielder is expected to progress to Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday, which would line him up for an activation around the middle of next week. An oblique strain sent Hoerner to the injured list July 29, but he appears to be nearing his return to the Cubs' lineup. Updates about his rehab and expected activation date should become available in the next few days.

Rehab games coming soon Hoerner (oblique) will continue workouts through the weekend with the intention of beginning a rehab assignment early next week, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

Impact Hoerner has been out since late July with an oblique strain. It's not clear exactly how long his rehab assignment will be, and the rebuilding Cubs have no need to rush him back, but it looks as though he could return as soon as late next week if all goes well.

Set to take swings Tuesday Hoerner (oblique) went through fielding drills Monday and is slated to hit in the cage Tuesday, per manager David Ross.

Impact This comes on the heels of Hoerner resuming baseball activities earlier this month, so the infielder is making steady progress as he attempts to return from a right oblique strain he suffered July 29. However, with the Cubs not in playoff contention, they figure to take things slowly with the 24-year-old in an effort to make sure he's fully healthy heading into the 2022 season.
