Garza Staying on the DL

     According to Stephania Bell of ESPN.COM, Matt Garza will not be returning to the DL on Friday (the first day he's eligible to come off). Garza has been out with a bone contusion in his right elbow and has just started throwing bullpen sessions. He's scheduled to throw a couple bullpen sessions later in the week. If he continues to improve he should come off the DL sometime next week.
   Garza has been solid his last few starts on a bad Chicago Cubs team. This season he's posted a typical Matt Garza ERA of 3.72 but has had a disappointing 2-4 record. Don't expect much better when he comes off the DL. He's going to be a decent starter going forward but nothing to be excited about. There are plenty of better starters out there.
