Reinstated from IL The Cubs reinstated Maton (knee) from the 15-day injured list Monday.

Impact Maton landed on the 15-day injured list April 10 due to right knee tendinitis, but he has recovered enough to return to the majors despite just one rehab outing with Triple-A Iowa on Friday, when he allowed two hits and zero walks while striking out two across two scoreless innings. Matton gave up six earned runs across his three outings prior to landing on the IL, but the hope from the Cubs is the rehab was enough for the right-hander to return to his 2025 form, when he posted a 2.79 ERA, 1.06 WHIP, 22 holds, five saves (in 10 attempts) and an 81:23 K:BB across 61.1 innings with the Cardinals and Rangers. Charlie Barnes was optioned to Triple-A Iowa in a corresponding move.

Cleared for rehab assignment Maton (knee) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Iowa on Friday, Bruce Levine of 670TheScore.com reports.

Impact Maton was cleared to pitch in games after getting through a live batting practice session with no issues. Working his way back from right knee tendinitis, Maton could require just the one rehab appearance before rejoining the Cubs' bullpen. When Maton does return, he might be considered for save chances while Daniel Palencia (oblique) is out, though a 13.50 ERA before getting hurt could point to easing him into such situations.

Faces live hitters Maton (knee) threw a live batting practice and is mulling how to proceed Tuesday, Patrick Mooney of The Athletic reports.

Impact Maton was placed on the 15-day injured list April 10 with right knee tendinitis, so he hasn't appeared in a game since his last appearance April 7 against the Rays. It appears the reliever has made progress, having faced live hitters to this point.
