The Phillies dodged an ace Sunday -- the Cubs scratched starter Carlos Zambrano today.

Zambrano apparently has a dead arm - so the Phillies may actually lost out on this move. Zamabrano is 1-1 with an 8.72 ERA in his last four starts.

Sean Marshall (3-3, 3.52) will make his fourth start of the season in place of the Big Z. Marshall is 0-1 with a 13.50 ERA in 8 2/3 career innings against the Phils.
