Guzman has one thing very much in common with Prior. A questionable shoulder. He has all the talent in the world. Excellent control, explosive stuff, and a good sinker to keep the ball in Wrigley. He hasn't shown the strikeout ability that Prior and Zambrano did in the minors, but then again not many pitchers do. I think his callup all depends on his health, the health of the rest of the Cubs staff, and what happens with Clement's spot in the rotation. With all the injury problems the Cubs rotation seems to have I think its enivitable he makes the big club before the A.S. break if he returns from the shoulder surgery in good form.

That pretty much says it all, injury risk with plenty of potential.
