The Cubs activated Morgan (elbow) from the 60-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Iowa on Saturday.

Morgan had been on the shelf since mid-April with an elbow impingement. He's healthy again after submitting a 1.69 ERA in 10.2 innings over a nine-appearance rehab assignment at Iowa, but he'll end up sticking around at the Triple-A level since the Cubs don't have room for him in the big-league bullpen at the moment.
