Zambrano Bumps An Ump

Posted by Paul Moro on Wednesday May 27th 2009, 5:48 pm - filed in Bumped Umps, News reel

While arguing a call made following a play at the plate in this afternoon’s Cubs-Pirates matchup, Carlos Zambrano (let’s face it, the man has some serious problems) nudged umpire Mark Carlson, earning him an ejection. But then Zambrano decided to give himself more authoritative powers and proceeded to eject Carlson in turn.

I’m still debating whether or not this is awesome or incredibly idiotic.

Unfortunately, the video does not show what Zambrano did following this, namely, throwing a ball into leftfield, taking a bat to the watercooler and of course, slamming his glove into the fence. Like I said. The dude has some serious problems.

UPDATE: Found a video of the post ejection Godzilla impression:

What they need: 2009-2010 offseason

Here we go again. Time for another edition of our semi-annual “What They Need” series, where we play GM for all 30 teams. As usual, we’ll be suggesting subtle tweaks for some squads, and major overhalls for others. There’s already movement going on in the Hot Stove front, so there’s no time to waste!
Here’s a [...]

Teams That Were Almost Great: 2003 Los Angeles Dodgers

The 2003 Los Angeles Dodgers had one of the greatest pitching staffs the game of baseball has ever known. At the height of the steroids era, in a season when 104 players would test positive for performance enhancing drugs, the Dodgers hurlers posted a 3.16 ERA, good enough for an insane 128 team ERA+, and [...]

Can the Nationals contend next season?

Okay, so at a time when most people are debating whether or not the Washington Nationals can even break .500 next season, this is going to sound more than a little crazy, but I think the Nats have an outside chance at contending next season.
I’m not saying it’s going to happen, but I am saying [...]

For reasons of attention span, or specifically, the lack of it, I am focusing on current major [...]
