The Cubs released Cuevas on Thursday.

Cuevas was attending camp as a non-roster invitee but didn't have a legitimate chance to win an Opening Day bench gig with the Cubs due to the team's ample depth in the outfield. The 28-year-old appeared in 76 games with the Rockies over the past two seasons but saw the majority of his action at Triple-A Albuquerque in each of those years.
