Default Zambrano insults Brewers' hitters

Quote:
MILWAUKEE -- Cubs pitcher Carlos Zambrano might want to be careful the next time he faces the Milwaukee Brewers.

Zambrano was asked to compare his emotions on Opening Day when he started for the Cubs against the Cincinnati Reds to his emotions on Saturday against the Brewers. Zambrano lost the season opener, but beat the Brewers, giving up three runs on five hits over seven innings.
"I think it's a different ballclub," Zambrano said after Saturday's game. "I think Cincinnati has better hitters than Milwaukee. I'm not saying the Milwaukee Brewers are nothing, but the offense of the Cincinnati Reds is better and there's no room for mistakes.

"When you pitch against Cincinnati, they have Adam Dunn, Ken Griffey and all those guys, and when you make a mistake ... you will pay for it," he said. "Sometimes you make a mistake here [against the Brewers] and sometimes they miss, and that's good."

Well, I do agree with him...
However, I don't think you should come out and say it to the media like that. Personally it gives Zambrano a bad name, and makes him look out of control. It also may give the Brewers motivation, but usually Zambrano backs up his words. I just wish he would have kept this to himself, althought the Cincy hitters are better than Milwaukee's....
