Maybe a vicious beating could earn him a spot on the DL.

Hey Rok...remember that horrible beating I gave you just for being Italian?

Or you could hope that he starts performing up to his career averages and Caridad preforms well, so Zambrano can get moved back to where he belongs.

Or this.
But a beating might speed up the process.

And Berg should have been demoted. His numbers were so deceiving up until he shat all over himself tonight.

Yeah, when a bullpen guy makes you pine for Howry, Alfonseca, and Gregg, you know you're in a world of hurt. If Lou has any sense, he'll make Grabow do mop up work until he proves he can get some hitters out. Not that our offense is really accomplishing much, but Grabow's extra runs make any chance at a comeback a lot less realistic.

He's crap. Never been the least bit impressed with him. He has the least deceiving wind-up ever and blah stuff on top of it. Okay sinker sometimes, but leaves it up in the zone too much to be all that effective. Really his only use is if you're looking for a double play ball, and let's be honest- don't want him in big, late-inning situations.
