Whispers have been heard that the Cubs will get rid of Carlos Zambrano if they fall out of the race. He’s hard to handle both on and off the field due to his temper but it’s hard to argue with his results. Zambrano has pitched in 13 games (all starts) for the Cubs this season and he is 4-3 with a 3.69 ERA and a 1.33 WHIP. In his career with the Cubs, the 28-year old Zambrano has pitched in 244 games (233 starts) in which he is 100-64 with a 3.49 ERA and a 1.29 WHIP. Carlos is also a outstanding switch hitter. He has batted in 255 games in which he is 125 for 527 (.237 avg, .634 OPS) with 56 runs scored, 18 homers and 50 RBIs. The Cubs would be dumb to get rid of Zambrano and he would be very hard to replace.
