Eh, teams will make room for psychopaths that can help them win.
He got released because he walked 10 batters in 19 innings at AAA and put up a WHIP of 1.5.
That's way too many baserunners and his upside at 32 yrs old is gone.
Zambrano's minor league peripheral numbers look a lot like Jeremy Bonderman's did. And as soon as Bonderman faced big league hitters, he got his head handed to him. The Phillies aren't dumb, they know the same thing will happen to Zambrano and at this point he's just a clog in the AAA pipeline.
