LOS ANGELES — Cubs pitchers Andrew Cashner and Randy Wells headed to Arizona on Wednesday to continue their rehab there and both could be facing batters next week. — Carrie Muskat
So let’s say they begin facing batters on Monday, May 9th. They get their 4 days off and go back out to face some hitters again on May 14th. If all goes well we might see a rehab start or two at that point. Since they pitch different days in the big leagues, we’ll say Wells gets a rehab start on May 19th and Cashner on May 20th.
If they each made only one rehab start their next available day to pitch would May 24th and May 25th. Here’s how the pitching may work out the rest of the month:
4th: Carlos Zambrano
6th: Matt Garza
7th: Casey Coleman
8th: Ryan Dempster
10th: Zambrano
11th: Garza
12th: Coleman
13th: Dempster
14th: 5th starter
15th: Zambrano
16th: Garza
17th: Coleman
18th: Dempster
19th: 5th starter
20th: Zambrano
21st: Garza
22nd: Coleman
24th: Dempster
25th: Zambrano
26th: Garza
27th: Coleman
28th: Dempster
29th: Wells
30th: Cashner
31st: Zambrano
If they do 2 sessions facing batters in Arizona and then two rehab starts they’d be on schedule to start the 29th and 30th. I gave them the second rehab start because the Cubs don’t have the 5th starter’s spot due up after the 19th. it’s possible we could see Wells return on the 27th, but I think it’s most likely we’ll see the two start on the 29th and 30th at home vs the Pirates and then the Astros.
6 to 8 weeks seemed a reasonable estimate for their return at the time of their injuries and a return on those two days would put them right at 8 weeks.
Hmm. Two fifth starter spots before the hypothetical return of Wells and Cashner. Would you rather waste the option on Diamond than on Jay Jackson then? Or hope that Doug Davis or Wellemeyer is healthy enough to eat five innings or so?

Well, maybe Doug Davis. He’s starting for Daytona tomorrow, but he might not be ready to throw many innings in 10 days.

If he has to throw more the 100 pitches, the game might not be over in 10 days (dying laughing)
From the “how fat is Carlos Zambrano” bit on the last thread: didn’t Sullivan or some other POS criticize Zambrano for being TOO in shape a year or two back? Like it was a sign he wasn’t taking his pitching seriously because he wanted to be an all around athlete? Or am i misremembering that? I could be because its a pretty reliable formula that: if X= [a characteristic of Carlos Zambrano] then X = [something the beat writers have criticized him for.] Maybe one of you statfagets could make that look more like math.

Clearly the Cubs did read Moneyball and found the next market inefficiency: Free swinging. Not enough value is placed on those players who swing at every pitch.
Against Jarrod Parker…
Bert Jackson: 0/1, 3 BB
Vitters: 0/3, 1 BB

Pierson v. Post – Post, a fox hunter, was chasing a fox through a vacant lot when Pierson came across the fox and, knowing it was being chased by another, killed the fox and took it away. Post sued Pierson on an action for trespass on the case for damages against his possession of the fox. Post argued that he had ownership of the fox as giving chase to an animal in the course of hunting it was sufficient to establish possession.
