<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->The Cubs are shutting down Rich Harden for the rest of the year. Harden, who has struggled with his command the last three starts, including Wednesday's 71-pitch, three-inning outing, is being replaced in the rotation.
Manager Lou Piniella said Tom Gorzelanny would replace Harden in his next start on Monday and the Cubs would make plans afterwards.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->Chicago Cubs manager Lou Piniella said Thursday that right-handed pitcher Rich Harden will miss his start on Monday and possibly a second start on Sept. 26 in San Francisco.Piniella said the team is giving Harden a rest, and that there's nothing physically wrong with the pitcher, who is coming off two substandard starts.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
So, has he thrown his last pitch as a Cub? I think we offer arb (assuming he really isn't seriously injured) and hope he declines.
