Carlos Zambrano has had to wait since April 20 for his next start; he was supposed to go in last night’s rained-out game in Pittsburgh.
↵The Cubs have announced that Z will start Friday’s game; originally that would have been Carlos Silva’s turn.
↵According to the cubs.com probable pitchers page, Silva will now go on Saturday and Ryan Dempster on Sunday. But stay tuned. The Daily Herald’s Bruce Miles says Lou is on a fishing expedition in the Gulf of Mexico today. Maybe he’ll reel in another starting pitcher.
