8/7 Cubs (Big Z) @ Rockies (Jimenez) 8:10 PM; CSN; WGN Radio

[Ski]

why

[mul21]

Ascanio just made Pujols look really, really, really really bad on a slider. He's throwing some filth up there right now.

[Butterscup1679666578]

someone gets hurt every time someone comes off the DL.

 

LUCKIEST TEAM IN BASEBALL THOUGH

[JonJayCutler]

It never fails. We don't even have to send people down anymore. Just take one off the DL and add another.

[Keener98]

Screw it call up Carpenter or Cashner, because there is nobody in AAA I trust to start.

[Yeti]

any word on the injury?

[Outshined_One]

Screw it call up Carpenter or Cashner, because there is nobody in AAA I trust to start.

 

I can't wait for the Cubs to call up Casey Fossum.

[PrimeTime]

Anyone watching the Cards/Pirates game? Some guy tried to reach for a foul ball (grounder down the line) and completely landed on his head. Game is being delayed. One of the weirdest things I've seen in a while. They're not taking him out on a stretcher.

 

Albert came over and healed the man with the touch of his hand.

[Keener98]

any word on the injury?

 

Im guessing his back again

[B-Diddy]

What's the scoop with Z?

[Outshined_One]

any word on the injury?

 

Im guessing his back again

 

You guessed right.

[NotSoSober]

any word on the injury?

His back is still bothering him. Apparently he threw about 5 pitches in the bullpen and knew he couldn't go

[Keener98]

Screw it call up Carpenter or Cashner, because there is nobody in AAA I trust to start.

 

I can't wait for the Cubs to call up Casey Fossum.

 

Im guessing Mitch freaking Atkins, but at this point in the season Id rather see Carpenter or Cashner

[JonJayCutler]

Hopefully this is just a case of him not being fully healed from his original injury and not a reaggrevation. There is quite a difference.

Oh and the Cardinals just took the lead. Its been a great past 15 minutes.

[mul21]

I'd imagine they just send Marshall to the rotation and call Stevens back up for the pen. I can't imagine the back will keep Z out more than one more start after this.

 

Maybe piggyback Marshall and Heilman?

[Fred Hornkohl]

any word on the injury?

 

Lower back stiffness

[Cubbies2238]

How long will Marshall be able to go? I can't imagine it will be any more than 5 innings.

[DiamondMind]

any word on the injury?

 

He hurt his back warming up.

[DiamondMind]

I'd imagine they just send Marshall to the rotation and call Stevens back up for the pen. I can't imagine the back will keep Z out more than one more start after this.

 

Maybe piggyback Marshall and Heilman?

 

Either way, I want Stevens back up here.
