The Cubs have officially imploded. Ok Carlos Zambrano has imploded. I love Big Z's fire, but he acted like a complete ass today. Hitting Jim Edmonds in the 1st inning to load the bases, then Edmonds took him deep in his next AB, Zambrano then struck out Edmonds in his 3 AB, 4th AB after Scott Rolen hit a HR to put the Cardinals up 5-3, Zambrano takes out his frustrations on Jim Edmonds again and hits him. For which he was rightfully ejected. What a completly class less move by Zambrano.

The Cardinals played it smart and never retaliated for Zambrano's antics. Sosa and Carpenter even had a little conversation on the mound as Sosa was heading back to the dug out. I am sure Carpenter was saying, "Man you guys need to get Z under control." With Sosa nodding saying, "No sh*t!"

I have to bring up Wendell Kim who again was the difference maker in a loss. Sending a fresh off the injury Am-Ram home against one of the better OF arms in baseball, Reggie Sanders. You know this story, runner gets nailed by a mile at home plate. How many times do we have to see this tragic tale played out? The story always ends the same.

On the bright side Rey Ordonez was designated for assignment, ending his Cub career. How could we ever win without him? Ohhh wait.....
