Impact Martin joined the Cubs at Progressive Field in Cleveland on Saturday and was expected to be called up then to replace Horton, who departed Friday's contest with right forearm discomfort, but the game was rained out and Chicago didn't have to make any roster moves. The Cubs get a 27th man for Sunday's doubleheader, though it appears that Martin may get a shot to stick around into next week. The lefty reliever has been in the organization since 2021 but has yet to make his MLB debut. He would likely fill a middle relief role, with one of Ben Brown or Colin Rea expected to move from the bullpen into the rotation with Horton out.
