Deichmann was optioned to Triple-A Iowa on Sunday, Maddie Lee of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

The Cubs activated Jason Heyward (finger) from the injured list Sunday, so Deichmann is getting sent down to make room on the roster. The 26-year-old went 4-for-23 with an RBI in seven games at the MLB level and will serve as organizational depth the rest of the season.
