Vidal Brujan News: Booted from 40-man roster

The Cubs designated Brujan for assignment Wednesday, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Brujan never found his niche with the Cubs, slashing only .222/.234/.289 in 36 games while playing sparingly. His versatility could make him an interesting waiver pickup for other teams, but a career .192/.259/.271 batting line over parts of five seasons in the majors suggests that expectations should be low.
