Things need to happen. Embarrassed again by the red legs. Luckily interleage play puts a lot of garbage teams in the NL Central or else people would argue about it….

He doesn’t know when to pull a pitcher, he doesn’t know how to use his bullpen, and he doesn’t know how to spread playing time around.

Marcus Mateo was sent to AAA today, but he was good enough last night to come in for Zambrano in a high leverage situation. He’s got Sean Marshall. He’s got Kerry Wood. He’s got Carlos Marmol, who was brought in later in the game DOWN 7-4 to get some work in.

He says all of the right things to the media and the team my most accounts. None of this will make the Cubs good. This will happen about 40 more times this season, so let’s see if Quade can keep his composure 40 more times.

Once “Z” begins to unravel, experience says his chances of recovery are slim.
