Zambrano finished anger management in October: "I'm Cured"

[Banedon]

I got approval from the pshychologist that I can be by myself," he said with a laugh.

 

Did it work?

 

"Yes, it did work," he said. "Believe me, that was an experience that I can talk about through the years. Maybe in the future I can be a pitching coach or whatever 20 years from now, and I can speak to the young kids about what I went through, what happened in my career, things that I experienced."

 

Would Zambrano really consider becoming a pitching coach after he retires?

 

"I don't know," he said. "I just said that."

[fiver]

"I don't know," he said. "I just said that."

 

well, i can see he's off to a good start in thinking before speaking. good deal.

[Sammy Sofa]

I love this man so very much.

I'll believe it when I see him not stomping around on the mound like my toddler when I tell him he can't have candy.

[Sammy Sofa]

Stop it.

Zambrano certainly seemed calm enough when he finished the season 8-0 with a 1.whatever ERA.

:lol:

I didn't see Jack Nicholson in the dugout?

 

Hope it translates into a CY award and three starts in the WS

Like father like son

[Cubs Fan Dan]

I will alwys root for Zambrano to succeed, I personally hope he finishes his career as a Cub. It sucks he was jerked around by Lou and it sucks that he is overpayed but that is not Zambrano's fault it is Hendry's.

i DID want candy.

 

well you're father ate it!

Carlos Zambrano is 29 years old.

[Sammy Sofa]

It's pretty damn funny hearing the radio shows here griping about this, like the "I'm cured" comment was serious.

[A New Era]

I just want Zambrano to pitch the way he did the last couple months of last season. If he still gets pissed, don't care. All I care about is how he pitches. If he pitches like he did at the end of last season and can relatively keep it together all year, our rotation becomes very very good.

so much to love here

[Post Count Padder]

I really don't give a crap how he acts on the mound. He can throw all the hissy fits he wants if he pitches like he did in the second half.

If he pitches like he did in the second half, he probably won't have many reasons to throw a hissy fit.

[weis21]

I'm not sure if anybody else here feels like I do, but I don't care if he throws a fit or not if he pitches like he did to finish the year in 2010.

Why would he care about candy if he's pitching in a game?

My question was why is erik the one who gets to decide if Carlos gets candy?

Yeah, really. Who died and made him Willy Wonka? Handing out golden tickets and [expletive].
