Cubs' Zambrano considers himself lazy

The Chicago Cubs are five games out in the National League Central and 3.5 back in the wild-card chase so they need all the help they can get.

 

Pitcher Carlos Zambrano(notes) may be close to trying to help them out. He's apparently scheduled to pitch Aug. 25 against the Washington Nationals after he gets a rehab start to keep getting his aching back in order. He's been suffering from back spasms since Aug. 1 and apparently has had a bulging disc for years that has caused the 28-year-old agony.

 

The Big Z is apparently blaming himself for not doing workouts between starts. The 6'5", 255 pounder says his problem is that "I've been lazy." Doctors want him to do abdominal exercises in order to help strengthen his back but Zambrano has apparently decided not to do them so much.

 

He claims that he will get serious now. The Cubs sure hope so.
