Cubs starter Carlos Zambrano made some disparaging remarks about the Milwaukee lineup after his last start, saying stuff like:
"I don't say that the Milwaukee Brewers are nothing, but I think the offense of the Cincinnati Reds (is) better," Zambrano said. "There's no making mistakes when pitching against Cincinnati. When you make a mistake against them, you pay for it."
"When you make a mistake against Milwaukee, sometimes they miss it and that's good."
Milwaukee was definitely pissed about it. Considering they're about +140, with a solid starter going, and considering the general character of the Cubs, Milwaukee might be a good play. It will be interesting to see if they hit Zambrano. It'll be hard with the temperature under 50 and a wind blowing in.
