The Chicago Cubs cut ties with Miguel Montero on Wednesday after the catcher blamed pitcher Jake Arrieta for allowing seven stolen bases in Tuesday’s loss to the Washington Nationals. Montero, who turns 34 on July 9, was designated for assignment, and the World Series champions promoted catcher Victor Caratini from Triple-A Iowa. Robert Gsellman (strained left hamstring) became the sixth Mets starting pitcher to go on the disabled list this season. The Yankees placed designated hitter Matt Holliday (viral infection) on the 10-day DL and recalled infielder Miguel Andújar from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
