09/05/2008 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Chicago Cubs pitcher Carlos Zambrano was diagnosed with rotator cuff tendinitis in his right shoulder Thursday.
Already expected to miss his next scheduled start Sunday against Cincinnati, Zambrano will likely take the mound September 14 at Houston after an MRI revealed the hurler needed anti-inflammatory medication and a few days rest.
Zambrano left after five innings of Tuesday's 9-7, 11-inning loss to Houston due to an apparent relapse of a tired arm. Zambrano was scratched from his Sunday afternoon start against Philadelphia because of the problem.
On Tuesday, he lasted 86 pitches before telling Cubs pitching coach Larry Rothschild he didn't feel well, then left the game.
The 27-year-old right-hander is 13-5 in 27 starts this season with a 3.58 ERA.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds
With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season. What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season. Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all. Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13). Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two. Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury. Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven. Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury. Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.
In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons. Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4. Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1). The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this. No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.
