The Chicago Cubs<\/a> placed All-Star right fielder Kyle Tucker<\/a> on the 10-day injured list Tuesday due to a left calf strain.<\/p>\n

The move is retroactive to Saturday.<\/p>\n

Tucker last played for Chicago on Sept. 2, when he hit a three-run homer against the Atlanta Braves<\/a>, then left the game with tightness in the calf. He indicated afterward that the calf had been bothering him for a few days.<\/p>\n

Seiya Suzuki<\/a> has been playing right field in Tucker’s absence for Chicago, which entered Tuesday 7.5 games behind the first-place Milwaukee Brewers<\/a> in the NL Central but atop the wild card standings by five games.<\/p>\n

Tucker is hitting .270 with 22 home runs and 73 RBIs.<\/p>\n

Catcher Moises Ballesteros was recalled from Triple A in the corresponding roster move.<\/p>\n
