Cubs Trade Zambrano
After 2 straight meltdowns with the Chicago Cubs, starting pitcher Carlos Zambrano was traded to the Miami Marlins for starting pitcher Chris Volstad. Zambrano had 2 straight down years that has caused him to be dealt to Miami. Zambrano had some significant years with the Cubs such as a great 4 year strech with them from 2003-2006. Overall Zambrano has helped the Cubs pitching staff in ways and he'll be missed. With the addition of Zambrano, the Marlins have had a great offseason with the acqusitions of Jose Reyes, Heath Bell, Mark Buehrle, and now Carlos Zambrano. Watch out, this Miami Marlins team will explode this season. They have enough talentto reach to the playoffs this season.
