Carlos Zambrano? The same guy making $90M? The one that has had six straight opening day starts? He’s our new setup guy… We’re not going to rant and rave about this but just say it’s an irrational move made by a panicked team two weeks into the season. The Cubs have scored four runs in six games and we detailed the offensive woes earlier. Somehow, we don’t think moving a guy that is still easily one of your five best starting pitchers to bullpen is the answer for winning ballgames.
This is a head scratcher at best. Z thinks it’s temporary. Lou could be convinced otherwise. At least the big guy isn’t throwing a fit. He seems to be taking it well for now. We’re not endorsing it and we don’t think it will end well. But it doesn’t change our focus from the impotent offense.
