Darwin Barney (knee) is aiming to rejoin the Cubs' lineup on Tuesday. Barney will have the stitches in his left knee removed Friday and will began a three-game rehab assignment with Triple-A Iowa. Assuming he gets through that alright, he'll be in the lineup Tuesday against the Rangers. Alberto Gonzalez will likely be sent down at that point.
