There has been a huge amount of expectation for the Cubs for almost a decade and when players have those expectations put on them and they fail, things like this are going to happen.
You're right, it doesn't happen to other teams. What other team has such huge expectations and is as consistently inconsistent?<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
The Zambrano incident is just the latest evidence that this franchise is leaderless. Ricketts needs to step in and clean house beginning with Hendry and Piniella. Zambrano is the least of his problems and is just the lightning rod of the moment.
