Cubs Minor League Wrap -- May 10

If you missed it in the comments from yesterday's wrap, in yesterday's Daytona Cubs game, there was an incident where outfielders Tyler Colvin and Tony Campana collided going after a ball in the left-center gap. Both were taken off the field in stretchers and hospitalized after the game. The good news is, according the the D-Cubs official website, is that both players are expected to make full recoveries. But expect trips to the DL for both players for the time being.
