HBT: Ozzie vows to keep Zambrano on even keel

As soon as Carlos Zambrano was shipped to Miami everyone wanted to know how baseball?s most combustible pitcher would get along with baseball?s most combustible manager in Ozzie Guillen.

Guillen spoke on that yesterday. He opined that perhaps the reason Zambrano had issues with the Cubs is because the Cubs let him have issues. And, for his part, he vowed to not let that happen:

?Maybe it?s not his fault,?? Guillen said. ?Maybe it?s somebody?s fault. Maybe they let that tiger leave the cage and couldn?t bring him back. That tiger is not going to leave the cage. I guarantee you he is not leaving the cage. I guarantee you that. As soon as he tries to open the cage, I?ll be waiting for his ass.??

That should be fun to watch.

In all seriousness, though, it probably won?t take Guillen bringing the hammer down on Zambrano to keep the guy in line. Given how little the Marlins are paying of Zambrano?s salary, he has to realize that if he messes up they?ll simply release him. ?And if they do that, it?s likely the end of his major league career.
