Velazquez was called up from Triple-A Iowa on Monday, Tim Stebbins of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
Velazquez will join the Cubs ahead of their doubleheader versus the Brewers on Monday. He'll fill the gap left on the active roster by Jonathan Villar (mouth), likely operating mostly as a bench bat. He is starting right field for Game 1 of the doubleheader and batting seventh.
