Cubs activate Wellington Castillo, DFA Eli Whiteside

According to Bruce Miles of the Daily Herald the Cubs have activated Welington Castillo from the disabled list and in a corresponding move designated Eli Whiteside for assignment.

Whiteside was filling in while Castillo was on the disabled list and hit .120/.115/.160 with 2 doubles and posting  a -0.1 dWAR. Miles also said Whiteside would be the backup catcher for Iowa if he clears waivers.

Castillo was hitting only .242/.287/.385 at the time of the injury which was the result of a horrible May in which he hit .214/.250/.310. Welington would most likely be in the lineup for todays game.
