I hate WCIU. Thats the only channel I don't get. ](*,) WGN is too busy showing re-runs of Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill. *checks guide* Nope, they're new episodes. Just as bad.
I suppose they could just dump Gathright, bring up a AAA reliever, and when Zambranos ready to come back, return said reliever to Iowa and bring up Jake Fox or Brad Snyder or Jason DuBois or whoever Lous heart desires.
It is hard for him to get hurt when he doesn't play. Why is he on the roster if he doesn't play? :banghead: Because speed doesnt slump and hes a lefty.
? They've been showing him taking a part a baseball. He's down to the core now, and has scissors trying to cut it in half. Not as good as Lilly and the giant moth, but you gotta keep busy.
It's going to be longer than that. Pedro missed 2 months last year with a strained left hamstring. Vernon Wells missed a month. Stephen Drew and Brenden Ryan are on the DL now with it. I'd be shocked if Z avoids the DL. Of course that depends on the severity of the sprain. If it's mild he might not even miss a start. If there's microtrauma he may have a DL stint. I'm sure he didn't do any worse than that. Which means he will miss up to 3 starts depending on how he heals. Thats why its good to have guys like Dempster and Marshall at the back end of the rotation, you can afford to lose your ace for a few starts. Hoever, if its any worse than that, like I said, go after Pedro.
The funny thing is, as shaky as some of our relievers have been, none have been quite bad enough to outright dump and give Fox, Stevens, or Ascanio a shot. Well, aside from Cotts, and Lou needs his precious lefty.
