Ramirez in, Dempster out

While yesterday saw Aramis Ramirez's return from the disabled list, today saw pitcher Ryan Dempster go on the list for 3 to 4 weeks for a broken big toe. 

Dempster injured himself as he was jumping over the railing at Wrigley Field Sunday night after a victory over the Brewers. He was scheduled to pitch tonight's game against the Braves, however Carlos Zambrano filled in. 

Ramirez was out for about two months due to a dislocated left shoulder. To make room for Ramirez's return, the Cubs sent Kevin Hart and Sam Fuld back to Triple-A Iowa. However, Hart was recalled to fill in as a starter while Dempster is out. 

Center fielder Reed Johnson and closer Angel Guzman were also activated off of the DL.
