Dansby Swanson and Nico Hoerner return to Cubs lineup vs. Braves, team calls up Luis Vázquez for support

Cubs infielder Luis Vázquez was new to the Wrigley Field clubhouse when he settled into his locker before the team's game against the Braves on Tuesday. When the interview wrapped up, he walked over to catch up with starting pitcher Javier Assad and catcher Miguel Amaya. “For us, it means a lot to see him here, to bring his talent and support to the team,” Amaya, who overlapped with Vázquez in the minors, told the Sun-Times. Vázquez, who has been in the organization since the Cubs drafted him out of high school in Puerto Rico in 2017, could make his major-league debut this week.
