Fantasy Impact
Wiggins, the Chicago Cubs' No. 1 prospect, has not pitched since April 4 due to right elbow inflammation, but is feeling better and has begun a throwing program. There is no clear timetable for his return, and the Cubs are expected to take their time with their top prospect. Wiggins owns a career 3.27 ERA and 1.17 WHIP across 145.2 innings in the minors.
The Cubs have returned right-handed prospect Jaxon Wiggins to minor league camp.
