Cubs using caution with Heyward's wrist

PITTSBURGH -- The Cubs continue to be cautious with outfielder Jason Heyward, who was out of the lineup for a third straight game as the Cubs faced the Pirates for the finale of a three-game series at PNC Park on Wednesday.
Heyward is nursing a sore right wrist and continues to receive treatment from the Cubs' training staff.
"He's doing well," Cubs manager Joe Maddon said. "Last night, I was going to use him possibly defensively or as a baserunner -- I didn't want him to hit. There's different ways to use him today. I haven't spoken with him or the trainers. They are working on things.
"It's still my impression that it is not a DL situation. We've been going fine, so there was no reason to push it today. Let's just not push it right now and make sure he's feeling pretty good about himself."
