It's been well documented here what my feelings are in regards to Z's move to the bullpen (stupid) and how I feel about Alfonso Soriano (love him). Both, in the past, have been accused of being selfish and resistant to a move that may be perceived as a demotion.
Then there's Tom Gorzellany:
"It's not my decision, but I don't feel like I deserve to go to the pen," he said. "I've pitched well enough and done well enough this year to deserve to be in the rotation. I feel that whatever they choose to do, hopefully it's for the right reason. Whatever they ask me to do, I'll do. I can't have much say in the matter. But do I think I deserve to be put in the pen? No I don't."
I don't recall Zambrano saying he doesn't deserve to go to the pen, he just did it. I also don't recall Soriano saying that he hopes they're moving him out of the leadoff spot for the right reasons. Somebody other than me better call Gorzellany out on this. Can you imagine the outrage if this came from one of the media's favorite whipping boys?

You bring the pitchforks, I'll bring the torches, Jay. It's especially interesting (read: ass-chapping) to me that Gordon Wittenmeyer reported this story without even a twinge of annoyance, considering his article - only a day ago - that all but accused Big Z of intentionally sabotaging the bullpen to get back in the rotation. Because we all know the one word that describes Carlos Zambrano is "diabolical".
