Cubs to call up Stevens?

The Cubs optioned Kevin Hart back to Triple-A Iowa to get more work in as a starter. The Cubs would like to have Hart start either the July 19th game against Washington or the July 20th game against the Phillies. 

In his place, the Cubs will call up reliever Jeff Stevens from Iowa. Stevens, who came over in the Mark DeRosa, has a 2.08 ERA and an impressive 1.09 WHIP in 30 games this season. Stevens is a very smart and experience pitcher for his age, and should find success if given an opportunity in the Cubs bullpen.

If I remember Stevens had a really good spring training and almost made the team then.
