| Steve Clevenger making progress |
by Ed Gauna | CBSSports.com (4/29/13) Cubs catcher Steve Clevenger caught two bullpen sessions on Monday and has been throwing from 120-130 feet as he continues to recover from a strained oblique, MLB.com reports. He is expected to start swinging a bat early next week.

| Steve Clevenger out six weeks |
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com (4/14/13) Cubs catcher/infielder Steve Clevenger will miss six weeks with a strained oblique, MLB.com reports.
Clevenger was manning the backup catcher role and occasionally putting in some infield work -- he has a start at third base this season -- but was largely used as a pinch hitter early on. With Welington Castillo solid to begin the season (.364/.382/.515), playing time was going to be rare for Clevenger going forward.

| Steve Clevenger headed for MRI |
by Bill Passonno | CBSSports.com (4/13/13) Cubs catcher Steve Clevenger is scheduled to have an MRI on his oblique after apparently suffering an injury at the end of Saturday's loss to San Francisco, ESPN.com reports. Clevenger was examined by trainers after striking out as a pinch hitter to end the game.

| Steve Clevenger grabs bench spot |
by Bill Passonno | CBSSports.com (3/29/13) After the team hinted at the possibility earlier this week, Cubs catcher Steve Clevenger was awarded a spot on the opening day roster, according to the Chicago Sun-Times. Clevenger will be the third catcher carried by the Cubs, but he could also make some appearances at the corner infield positions.

| Cubs could use Steve Clevenger at third base this season |
by R.J. White | CBSSports.com (3/28/13) Cubs catcher Steve Clevenger earned some playing time at third base Wednesday, earning positive reviews from manager Dale Sveum. Clevenger, who played an inning at third base for the Cubs in 2012, thought his performance went well.
"I feel comfortable over there," Clevenger told MLB.com. "I was drafted as a shortstop, so I played my first year at short and second. I just need the repetition in the games, I think, but I don't feel weird over there. I'm not nervous at all."
Although Clevenger likely won't be relied upon as the team's regular third baseman this season, he could see some appearances at the position as a substitute or in emergency situations.

| Steve Clevenger saw his most extensive playing time in the majors last season, but could not do much with the bat. Mainly seeing time behind the plate, he batted just .201 with one home run and 16 RBI in 199 at-bats. Catcher is not his natural position but he appeared to adjust well and has become a favorite of manager Dale Sveum for his style of play. Clevenger will compete for playing time with Welington Castillo and Dioner Navarro during the spring so keep an eye on how everything plays out. Unless he becomes the everyday catcher in Chicago, however, leave the 26-year-old for the waiver wire. (Updated 12/11/12) |
