Zambrano has spend his entire career with the Chicago Cubs, making his debut in the 2001 season. The 30-year old pitcher has dealt with anger issues in the past, including being relegated to a role in the bullpen some in the 2010 season. For his career, he has accumulated a 125-81 win-loss record with the Cubs and a career 3.60 ERA. Zambrano also has 23 home runs in his career as a hitter, providing at least somewhat of a bat as a National League pitcher.
