I, Clever, wish I could have been the original source of this humor. Sadly, I am not.

More about Burnett from Zuckerman:

Quote
Johnson said he became aware of the recurring problem following yesterday's win.

"After the game, he got treatment," the manager said. "That's not usually what he does."

Johnson said Burnett was not scheduled to receive an MRI on the elbow.

The Cubs are a .500 team at home, but 17-48 on the road, including 1-6 on their most recent trip.

Detwiler hasn't faced Chicago this season, but went 1-1 with a 4.35 ERA in two 2011 starts.
