In order for the Cubs to keep Parisi, he must spend the whole season as a part of the 25 man roster. If he doesn't, he must be sent back to the team he came from, or you can work out some sort of a trade... usually cash works.
However, they can give him the David Patton treatment. Burry him in the bullpen, using him in mop up duty or give him an injury (which they also did with Patton) and let him sit out the season on the 15 day DL (which would technically keep him on the 25 man roster).
