Ozzie didn't pull some reactionary bullshit move like putting either of them in the bullpen. Seems like it's starting to pay off now.

From my vantage point, I think Zambrano deserved the benefit of the doubt and should have been allowed to work through his struggles. He's a veteran, he's been one of our best pitchers for years. Instead, Gorz, Wells, Silva -- all who had been on the team for a year (at most) got the nod over him. I get why he's disgruntled. Z has been getting the booty end of the stick all season long and he deserves better.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
How are you still protecting him?

I don't get it either. I sure as hell don't understand how Z deserves the benefit of the doubt. He has sucked for over a year and a half now.

The benefit of the doubt as far as what? Acting like a fucking idiot? Nope. Being pissed about getting jerked around? Absolutely.
