    The Cubs called up infielder Bobby Scales to take his spot on the roster, with right-hander Randy Wells expected to be summoned from the minors to take Zambrano's turn in the rotation against the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday.

    Zambrano, who injured his left leg trying to beat out a bunt against the Florida Marlins on Sunday, is 3-1 with a 4.50 earned run average this season.
