6/1 Braves (Davies) vs. Cobs (Z!) 1:20PM CT CSN

[Andy]

And maybe we'll trade Z now since evidently leaving games early is an automatic trade in Chicago.

[XZero771679666304]

Geez. I imagine Lee might not be as unwilling to waive that NTC.

 

Why in god's name would anyone want him to?

[third eye]

Wow, 18 hits over 7 innings. Its amazing that the braves only have eight runs. Does anyone have more info about Z leaving the park? I'm assuming Lou told him to go and calm himself down, right? Sorry, i havent had access to radio or TV.

[Fred Hornkohl]

K Hill grounded out to first, 3-1

[cubweiser03]

Zbikoskyswhatever should fight barrett AND Z.

[Omar]

If anyone should leave the park, D. Lee. He doesnt deserve this crap.

[XZero771679666304]

I hope he is traded, as his value is plummeting and he'll walk for sure.

[Andy]

Geez. I imagine Lee might not be as unwilling to waive that NTC.

 

Why in god's name would anyone want him to?

True.

 

But this is the 2nd time in 3 years he's been one of the few reasons to give a crap.

Jones grounded out to short, 6-3

Z for Texiera.

From the Tribunes "From the Cubicle" article:

 

 

 

FISTFIGHT IN THE DUGOUT BETWEEN Z AND BARRETT!!!!! Sorry, got a little excited about that. They were getting into it about getting crossed up (Z points to his head, Barrett points to the scoreboard, Z shoves him and hands swing). Wow. Great stuff. Chip reports that Z is headed to the clubhouse as Jacque draws a four-pitch walk.

 

The most amazing thing I read in that paragraph? JOCK DRAWS A FOUR PITCH WALK!!

So I get back from going with the family to Grant's Farm to learn that Barrett and Zambrano got more hits on each other than the Cubs have gotten all week. Figures.

No he isn't. He's going to end up having a monster year. Aram and Lee have to be kept regardless of what happens.
