At the beginning of the season I was more suspect of the starting pitching than the bullpen. Now I'm hoping the starting arms can just stay healthy and one or more of the relievers eventually can come around. It’s puzzling, isn’t it?

His K/BB ratio has fallen considerably and he is unable to get the ball to Dempster with a lead anymore. The Cubs absolutely must improve their bullpen to win the division; the rest of their team is very strong. It really says something about your pitching staff as a whole when Zambrano is pitching the way he is and they are still floating around .500.
