12/22 - Rich Harden by ground by Harry Pavlidis
Friday, September 25, 2009
News: Harden will not pitch again this season, ESPN reports.
Analysis: He says his arm is tired and with the Cubs having so little to play for, there's no reason to push it. The strikeout heavy, up-and-down Harden will be a free agent following the season.
Wednesday, September 23, 2009
News: Harden has been scratched from his scheduled start on Saturday and is not scheduled to pitch again, the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Analysis: He'll have a bullpen session on Wednesday and could get one more start, but it sounds like the Cubs may indeed shut him down for the season.
