Scouting Report

Assets
  • Zambrano's arsenal is topped by a hard sinker and tough change-up. He's really murder on right-handed hitters and knows how to get out of trouble with runners aboard.
Flaws
  • Command is his biggest problem, often falling behind in the count and giving away far too many free passes.
Career Potential
  • Decent back-end starter.
