Player Notes
May 29, 2008
Neal Cotts was recalled on Thursday to join the Cubs, according to the Miami Herald. To make room on the roster, Jose Ascanio was sent down.

Our View:Cotts had a rough 2007 season, but he has looked very good at Triple-A this year with a 2.00 ERA and three saves in 19 appearances with Iowa. He figures to be nothing more than another arm in the Cubs bullpen with little fantasy value.
March 21, 2008
The Cubs optioned Neal Cotts to Triple-A Iowa Friday, according to the Daily Herald. With Cotts being sent down, it looks like the Northsiders will be going with one lefty (Scott Eyre) in the bullpen, though it's possible Carmen Pignatiello could sneak in and and earn a job.
December 13, 2007
The Cubs avoided arbitration with Neal Cotts by inking him to a one-year deal Thursday. Financial terms of the deal weren't disclosed. Cotts split his 2007 season between Triple-A and the big leagues, holding a 4.86 ERA in 16 games with the Cubs and a 4.83 ERA in 24 games with Iowa.
May 22, 2007
The Cubs optioned Neal Cotts to the minors to create space on the roster for Sean Marshall, who was recalled to start on Tuesday. Cotts posted a 4.86 ERA in 16 relief appearances for the Cubs.
November 19, 2006
The Chicago Tribune reports that the Cubs have not ruled out the possibility that Neal Cotts could start next season. Cotts was a starter for most of his minor league career.
