RHP Dallas Beeler (right shoulder inflammation) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to March 25. The timetable for his return is unknown.

Beeler was optioned to Triple-A Iowa on Wednesday, Carrie Muskat of MLB.com reports.

Beller was called up to start Tuesday's game against the Rockies, in which he took the loss, allowing four runs on four hits with three walks in just 1.1 innings. He was also roughed up in his last start against the Reds on July 22, surrendering three earned runs on six hits in two innings. He'll return to Triple-A, where he'll look to get back on track.

Beeler gave up four runs on four hits and three walks in just 1.1 innings in his first loss of the season Tuesday against Colorado.

Beeler has now allowed 14 hits and nine runs in just 8.1 innings with the Cubs this year. He has been rocked at Triple-A Iowa as well (6.02 ERA, 1.560 WHIP in 64.1 innings) and it would be a surprise if he lasts another turn in the rotation.

Beeler has officially been recalled to start Tuesday's game against the Rockies.

Beeler has struggled in two previous starts for the Cubs this season, allowing five total earned runs on 10 hits with four walks in seven innings. He's also had his fair share of problems at Triple-A, where he holds a 55:26 K:BB ratio.

Beeler will start Tuesday's game against the Rockies, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Beeler has made two spot starts for the Cubs, but neither of them went well for the 26-year-old. Over seven innings, he allowed five runs on 10 hits and four walks. Beeler's Triple-A record this season isn't much better, sporting a paltry 55:26 K:BB ratio en route to a 6.02 ERA and 1.56 WHIP over 64.1 innings. The future beyond Tuesday's start remains unclear, but it seems highly unlikely Beeler will remain in the rotation for the long haul.

Beeler may be used for another spot start Tuesday against the Rockies, Jesse Rogers of ESPN Chicago reports.

With Tsuyoshi Wada getting roughed up in his most recent rehab start at Triple-A Iowa and Clayton Richard ineligible to return to the 25-man roster by Tuesday after being designated for assignment and optioned to Triple-A this week, Beeler appears to be the most likely candidate to receive the nod at Wrigley Field against the Rockies. Beyond that, his hold on a rotation spot is flimsy, as the Cubs may be ready to turn back to Wada during the first week of August if they don't acquire a starting pitcher prior to the July 31 trade deadline.

Beeler was optioned to Triple-A Iowa on Thursday.

Beeler made a spot start in Cincinnati on Wednesday, giving up five runs (three earned) on six hits and two walks over just two innings. With Tsuyoshi Wada (shoulder) nearing a return, Beeler will head back to Triple-A Iowa, where he owns a 6.02 ERA and 4.37 FIP through 64.1 innings (14 starts) this season. The Cubs may look in another direction next time they need a spot starter.

Beeler was awful in his spot start Wednesday, giving up five runs (three earned) on six hits and two walks in just two innings against the Reds.

He didn't record a strikeout, but avoided taking the loss thanks to a strong showing by the Cubs' offense. After such a horrendous outing, Beeler will almost certainly be returned to Triple-A Iowa, where he's posted an ugly 6.02 ERA.

Beeler has officially been called up from Triple-A Iowa and will start the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader.

The Cubs announced the move earlier Wednesday with the transaction now becoming official later in the morning. Beeler has struggled to a 6.02 ERA at Triple-A, but he'll be given a chance to prove himself at the big league level after he allowed only two earned runs over five innings in his lone start for the Cubs earlier this season. In a corresponding move, left-hander Clayton Richards was designated for assignment Wednesday.

Beeler will start the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader, CSN's Patrick Mooney reports.

Beeler will be called up from Triple-A Iowa to take the mound Wednesday evening. The Cubs designated fellow starter Clayton Richard for assignment Wednesday, so if Beeler pitches well Wednesday, he could get another start next time through the rotation. Beeler posted an unsightly 6.02 ERA in 14 starts with Iowa, but he did pitch well in his lone start with the big club this season, giving up just two earned runs and posting a 6:2 K:BB ratio over five innings.

Chicago Cubs pitcher Dallas Beeler was called up from Triple-A Iowa to start the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Cincinnati Reds, according to the team's official website.

Chicago Cubs pitcher Dallas Beeler was called up from Triple-A Iowa to start the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Cincinnati Reds, according to the team's official website. Beeler has a 6.02 ERA with Iowa this season, but he allowed just two runs in five innings in his only start with the Cubs this season and will be given another chance Wednesday.

Beeler went five innings against the Cardinals in Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader, giving up two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out six. He did not factor into the decision in the Cubs' 5-3 win.

The 26-year-old retired nine of the first 10 batters he faced in his first start of the year for the big club, striking out five in the first three innings. As the designated 26th man for the twin bill, Beeler will be forced to head back down prior to Wednesday's game, and his 6.33 ERA this season at Triple-A Iowa (58.1 innings) doesn't bode well for his chances of getting an extended run in the rotation in the second half.

Beeler was recalled from Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday.

Beeler will start the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Astros, and will then head back to Triple-A Iowa. He's struggled at the Triple-A level this season, posting a 6.33 ERA, 4.56 FIP, 7.7 K/9 and 3.9 BB/9 over 58.1 innings.

Beeler will be recalled to start the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Cardinals, Jesse Rogers of ESPN Chicago reports.

Beeler will be the 26th man for the Cubs on Tuesday, and will be sent back to Triple-A following the outing. He made two solid starts with the Cubs in 2014, but this is his first taste of the majors this campaign. He'll face a tough lineup in the Cardinals, so Beeler will need to be on his game to post a good outing.

Beeler (shoulder) was activated from the 15-day DL and optioned to Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Beeler will effectively continue his rehab from a should injury with Iowa after struggling to a 10.53 ERA and 2.19 WHIP in five starts while on an official assignment. The right-hander turned in a 3.40 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 83:32 K:BB in 20 starts for Iowa last season.

Beeler (shoulder) has made three starts for Triple-A Iowa this year, but none have been too inspiring.

In 11.1 innings for Triple-A Iowa, Beeler has given up 16 hits, 15 runs, and nine walks. He was placed on the DL on Apr. 12 without pitching a single game for the Cubs, and it looks like he's not yet ready to return to the big leagues.

Beeler (shoulder) will resume pitching by midweek, MLB.com's Carrie Muskat reports.

Shoulder issues prevented Beeler from pitching all spring, so he's still far away from seeing game action. Once Beeler is cleared to pitch without any restrictions, he'll likely settle in at Triple-A Iowa as starting pitching depth.

Beeler (shoulder) was placed on the 15-day DL on Sunday, MLB.com's Carrie Muskat reports.

Beeler has not pitched this spring due to a sore shoulder, and was a long shot to make the team anyway. He'll likely be sent to Triple-A Iowa once ready to be deployed at full capacity.
