It’s Pouring: Ted Lilly Out with Sore Shoulder

Chicago Cubs

The Cardinals are getting better, and the Cubs are getting worse. Starting pitcher and lone All Star Ted Lilly has been battling knee problems, so the fact that he’s been scratched from tomorrow’s start is not a huge shock.

Except that he’s been scratched because of a sore shoulder. Ruh Roh.

He’s having tests done today to determine the extent of the problem. I’ll let you know when you can exhale.
