Cubs activate Garza from DL

Chicago Cubs pitcher Matt Garza will return to a major league mound for the first time in 10 months on Tuesday, with the team reinstating the right-hander from the 15-day disabled list to start against the Pittsburgh Pirates.Garza was shut down last July with a stress reaction in his right elbow, then sustained a strained left lat muscle during spring training that has sidelined him since March.The 29-year-old has made four rehab starts between Triple-A Iowa and Double-A Tennessee to prep for Tuesday's assignment, allowing just two runs and 10 hits through a combined 15 1/3 innings over those outings.Garza went 5-7 with a 3.91 earned run average in 18 starts prior to being shelved last season.To make room for Garza on the active roster, the Cubs designated pitcher Michael Bowden for assignment. The 26-year-old Illinois native posted a 1-2 record with a 3.78 ERA in 14 relief appearances this season....
