The Cubs are off Monday before beginning a three-game series at the New York Mets on Tuesday night.

Chicago also placed reliever Derek Holland on the 10-day injured list and recalled infielder David Bote from Triple-A Iowa before Sunday’s game against the Nationals.

Holland is out with a bruised left wrist. He got struck by a comebacker during Wednesday’s 12-11 victory against San Francisco.
