Lee didn't get to a ball he possibly could've. I thought nothing of it. He was playing Pierre in for the bunt, bouncer past him down the rf line. Z then gives up 3 more hits in the inning, including a 3-run bomb. But he of course blames Lee. Maybe he should've blamed himself for not throwing over 87 mph until the 4 runs had come across.
You don't flip out at the team captain(who carried the team last year) and one of the most respected players in the league over a 50/50 groundball, especially when you then proceed to get rocked the rest of the inning. He's an immature piece of shit with diminishing skills. When he had an era under 4 and was throwing over 90 mph, I didn't care so much. He can go fuck himself and I'm sure Lou told him to do the same thing. There's a reason he was sent home after the 1st inning.

I've been hesitant to call Z's career over (especially as a Cub), but I'm to the point now where I'm thinking a permanent separation is needed. It has become obvious that he doesn't want to be here any longer, so maybe we should accommodate him. It's really too bad that all this is happening when he is at the lowest point of his career, because he is worth nothing right now in a trade.
