The hits just keep coming.

Harden to the DL - Clapp - 05-22-2009
We'll go with your thread I guess. Wells is starting tomorrow.

I can't help but feel this move was made up just to keep from having to send Patton back. I really hope that is not the case but this sure seems fishy.

I wish we could trade for Peavy now, like in the next 2 hours before he beats us as well.

At least it isn't his shoulder.

They said he felt a twinge in his back in his last start and then throwing a bullpen session. Doesn't sound serious, more that they're just being safe and it's the right call, just frustrating. He can comeback June 2nd.

I'm not sure I believe Snowman is the reason, but It wouldn't surprise me if it was made up. Lou said at the start of the year they wanted to give Harden some rests over the course of the year and doing it like this, he only has to miss 2 starts, gets some rest and we can replace him with another pitcher for 10 days.

It's possible, and it's how I'd like to handle him as well.

<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->"It's a mid-back strain," Cubs general manager Jim Hendry told ESPNChicago. "It's in the back side near his oblique. He did it in the pen the other night in his side session. Trainer Mark O'Neal told me it wasn't really bad, but we don't want to take any chances with Rich. We want to get it right for him."<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Thing is, if the Cubs aren't absurdly cautious with Harden injuries, he starts compensating weirdly, and fucks up his shoulder.
Harden to the DL - rok - 05-22-2009
Fuck Harden.
Harden to the DL - Andy - 05-22-2009
Since we still have 11 pitchers, including 5 starters, does this mean that Fox can come up rather than another pitcher?

Yup. Z is replacing Harden.
Harden to the DL - kbwsb - 05-22-2009
Man. Snakebit season.
OTOH, an injury to Dick Harden is hardly shocking. And I'm glad we're being cautious.
