    if that article is about him throwing 3 innings of minor league work, then i don't need to read it.

    May 26 On Tuesday, Prior made his second minor league rehab start for Class-A Lansing, allowing one run on two hits in 4.1 innings of work. The Cubs' righthander, who is recovering from Achilles and elbow injuries, threw 48 of his 62 pitches for strikes, fanning eight batters and walking none. Reportedly, he was throwing in the 89-93 mph range and reported no problems.
    Advice: Barring any last-minute setbacks, Prior likely will be bumped up to the Triple-A level and start for Iowa on Sunday. He continues to be on pace to join the Chicago Cubs' starting rotation the first weekend of June.

    :banana: Don't know how much he'll be able to contribute right off the bat, but with Wood hurt, they need him bad. Mitre and Zambrano are sucking big time lately.
