CZam's "heavy arm"?

[Chuckles]

Zambrano complained of a "heavy arm" which forced him to abandon his fastball...this isn't the kind of news I was looking for... Does anybody have any new news on this? Thanks all!!

Not too worry. He was money out there. It got heavy in the 7th.... It's real hot in Chicago this week and his last 2 prior outings he'd thrown 120+ pitches... Pitchers get tired in the 7th inning, but to Zambrano, not going 8 or 9 innings is a bit of an embarassment, so he was making excuses why he only went 7.

Strange, this doesn't usually happen to Dusty Baker's pitchers...

seriously though, what do you expect, the make Zam pitch AT LEAST 7 everytime he gets out there. if there Bullpen didnt blow so bad maybe his aces would blow their arms out all the time. as a Zam owner you can't ask for much more from him. he is screwed like the rest of us owners.

Owning Zambrano has been frustrating for years.... Someday, he's gonna be on a team with solid run support and a good bullpen and he's gonna win 20 or more every year. Keep the faith...

Thanks for the help on this one all...and Johnsamo, I'm with you, give the Cubbies some run support and CZam would be lethal!!!
