Houston Chronicle[/url]"]Chicago Cubs pitcher Carlos Zambrano had to be taken for X-rays and was deemed unavailable to pitch Tuesday after being struck on his throwing elbow by a fungo bat swung by Joey Cora.

Stupid fungo bats.

[ConstableRabbit]

Great. Take the one thing we have left.

[USSoccer]

Swung by Joey Cora, eh?

 

Nice. Watch him have a broken elbow.

[Shilzzz]

What the?! Kill the White Sox! Kill! Kill!

[Outshined_One]

I say we let Gene Clines get a free swing at Jose Contreras.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I've never really hated the White Sox until now. I hope someone drills Joey Cora and he dies.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I say we let Gene Clines get a free swing at Jose Contreras.

 

I think it would be okay to be aggressive in this case.

Why in the sam hell was Z standing anywhere near a fungo bat while it was being swung? x-rays...its not even commical anymore...you couldn't make this stuff up

[Flames24Rulz]

[cubs121]

[J.R.]

Bloody hell. I thought it was a joke.

 

Can I muster more hate for the Sox? Certainly ...

[Irrelevant Dude]

Sure would be nice if the Score would say something about it, but apparently they have no idea.

[UMFan83]

How do you go from: Prior, Zambrano, Wood, Clement, Maddux

 

to: Maddux, Marshall, Rusch, Marmol, Guzman

 

in just 2 years

[bc2k]

I don't understand this. I hate the lack of details. I'm skeptical this ever happened.

If he is out for an extended time, I think the appropriate punishment would be for MLB to allow us to knockout Buerhle for life, and then as a punishment for their obnoxious fans, ask Furcal to ram into Konerko or Thome.

[Mizzou]

What the hell is a fungo bat?

[Dirt Dog Sparly]

I want to know did Z not pay attention while the infielders were taking grounders or did Cora just brain fart and swing one and catch Z? The first is Z's fault, the second is Coras.

 

On the otherhand I am just ready to scream louder than normal about this year.
