The Cubs' medical staff is keeping a close eye this week on pitcher Carlos Zambrano, who has had stiffness in the right shoulder/neck area since his start Saturday against the Pirates. It's not considered serious and didn't appear to have a significant effect in his no-decision Saturday. Zambrano (6-1), who has minor discomfort when he turns his head to the left, threw a full bullpen session Tuesday and remains on track to make his next scheduled start Friday.

I hope Big Z is healthy, but then again he pitches in the NL Central, so I hope he needs some time off.

Hard to imagine him running into issues in May given his decathlete-like workout regimine, diet and physique.

Maybe he's suffering because he cut back on the caffeine a few weeks back...

Haven't the Cubs already played the Pirates like 39 times this year??? The Pirates do nothing but lay down for the Cubs, and the Cubs have them on their schedule 5 series every month......

They should be more concerned with his continuing failure to reign in his emotions. Big Z needs to see ze shrink. But it wouldn't surprise me if the Cubs have another pitcher with arm problems due to overusing him.
