Cubs manager Craig Counsell told reporters Edward Cabrera (hamstring) is headed to the injured list.

Cabrera was on crutches in the clubhouse and will undergo an MRI to determine the severity of a hamstring strain that he suffered while stretching to make a play at first base during Tuesday’s start against the Mets. He was carted off the field afterwards and is likely facing a multi-week absence, which puts additional strain on Chicago’s starting pitching depth.
