This is SO Cub (cont'd)

Angel Guzman will go on the disabled list Wednesday because of forearm cramping, the Cubs revealed.
We called this one a few days ago. The Cubs took an injury-prone pitcher, had him switch roles for the third time this season and then made him throw 7 2/3 innings in a 12-day span. It's the same type of thing Lou Piniella did to get his pitchers hurt in Tampa Bay, and as long as the Cubs let the old man run their pitching staff by whim alone, it will likely keep happening. Now the Cubs are going to call up another quality prospect, Sean Gallagher, throw him into the bullpen and see what happens.

Lou's apparently destroyed Guzman, so he'll call up another Crab Queen to see if he can do it again.
