Kris Bryant isn't sure how the rest of his rehabilitation assignment with the Iowa Cubs will play out. But one thing is certainly clear: The end is near.

Bryant said he may take Thursday off to get some rest as he works his way back from left shoulder inflammation that landed him on the disabled list. But the Chicago Cubs' superstar said following game one of Iowa's doubleheader Wednesday that nothing is set in stone. Part of the reason is because Friday's forecast calls for rain in Des Moines.

"We're still trying to figure out the plan. ... but it looks like there might be rain on Friday," Bryant said. "So, who knows? If I don't play another game here, I think it'll be all right, too."

Bryant joined the Iowa Cubs on Monday to begin his rehab assignment. He's gone 2-for-8 with three walks in three games with Iowa. The most important thing, though, is that Bryant said he's feeling well. Bryant admitted to being a "little sore" following Wednesday's game. But other than that, he's happy with how the stint has gone.

He wasn't in the lineup for game two. Both games were scheduled for seven innings.

"I feel pretty good," Bryant said. "Better than expected."

Bryant wouldn't say how long the rehab assignment would go, but said he hoped it would end soon.

"I haven't talked to them yet," Bryant said. "We don't know yet. I know rosters expand Sept. 1. So, there should be a good chunk of those guys going up, too. Hopefully I'm a September call-up."
