Zambrano should be placed on the DL ...I disagree... Zambrano should be placed on the DL retroactive to his last start. He will miss two starts max. That way we can call up Marshall or another pen arm if we move Lieber into the rotation without having to send someone down and having a short handed roster with an injured player taking up a roster spot.<BR/><BR/>On top of that... if you ask my humble opinion... I say we keep him on the DL until the All Star break. Whether we place him on the DL or not, he will miss his scheduled start Tue vs Balt for sure and most likely the following turn that would have fallen on the Sun game vs the Sox at The Cell. After that, we got a home and home with SF with at STL and home vs CIN in between before the break. I would like to think that at the very least the Cubs can tread water during this stretch and still hold onto 1st place in the NL Central. <BR/><BR/>That way we can have Big Z all rested and as sure as we can be that he is over this minor injury and ready to make the push in the second half.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00909889581099318748noreply@blogger.com
