It was a bad decision, regardless. A pitcher with Zambrano's career stats should be allowed the breathing room to sort out whatever struggles he was having at the time of the decision.

I'm not going to re-hash my entire position because I'm sure everyone is sick of it by now. However, I'll just say that the fact that Zambrano finished the season with better numbers than Silva, Gorz, and Wells really shouldn't surprise anyone.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->


exactly. It shouldn't surprise anyone that he went 8-0 with a 1.58 ERA for the second half in order to surpass those guys. I can't imagine anyone not expecting those kinds of numbers. It was as inevitable as the sun rising the East.
