Carlos Zambrano Going to the DL

ESPNChicago.com is reporting that Carlos Zambrano will go on the 15 day DL after being scratched from Friday night’s start with back stiffness.

Z reportedly flew back to Chicago from Denver to undergo tests.  Jeff Stevens is expected to be called up to replace him on the roster.

The Cubs will have to scramble rotation-wise for a little while, with Ted Lilly not expected back for at least another 10 days.  Wonder if Jeff Samardzija will get a starting shot after his decent 4 inning outing replacing the ineffective Sean Marshall last evening.
