Zambrano in all likelihood is going to have to pitch in 5 days, as it sounds like Gorz may have been hurt tonight. My guess is that they are pitching him to get him ready.

They don't have to rush him, at least not for Gorzelanny's next start. With the off day on Monday, they could push him back or skip a start.

But if that is the case, what is the downside to pitching him tonight?

I wish that I believed in Fate. I wish I didn't sleep so late. I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders.
