Think about this, Carlos Zambrano walks 3 men in one inning, throws close to 40 pitches in that inning, has all sorts of control problems, has a misplayed ball (sorta) behind him, the ump is squeezing him a little, and the Cubs blew a chance at scoring runs in the first inning.

You’re saying meltdown?

I’m saying Nationals.

They are bad, and these two wins have been more about bad Natty pitching instead of clutch Cub hitting. These guys are as bad as Natty Ice, and about as well-marketed too.

I don’t know what to take from these two games, but, hey, a win is a win.
