Tonight is what Zambrano will always be 3rd on this staff. 7 hits in 3 innings, and gives up the goahead run before they pull him. 3 innings, 3 jams, the last one cost them. While the ERA may be lower, he doesn't have the ability yet to pitch his way out of big bases loaded jams, he also lacks the mentality(It's there, he just has no idea where those 100mph fastballs are going, and actully, I think that gun was pumped up tonight, I've never seen him throw 100mph, he had 4 pitches at 100-101).
He's very emotional, and sometimes I wonder if it's too much.
