Player Notes

January 14, 2010
According to ESPNChicago.com, Carlos Zambrano publicly stated that he wants to remain a Cub for the rest of his career.

Our View:Big Z has been mentioned in trade rumors with multiple teams all offseason, but the temper mental right-hander has a no-trade clause in his contract. He is also owed $53.75 million over the next three years, which has made him even tougher to deal. He stated, "I want to finish my career here, and I want to be a Cub forever," but the Cubs can't be happy with his recent performance. Zambrano admitted that his struggles last season were a result of poor conditioning, and he made just 28 starts, his lowest total since 2001. He claims he's now in the best shape of his life, but Big Z is certainly trending down for his career and could, as always, melt down at any moment.

December 30, 2009
Carlos Zambrano will not be traded this offseason, according to Jon Heyman of Sports Illustrated.

Our View:While the Cubs still very much want to deal him, Big Z seems very unlikely to waive his no trade clause. Were he to reverse course and do so, Heyman thinks the Mets would be very interested. The Yankees are no longer a possibility after acquiring Javier Vazquez.

December 28, 2009
Jon Heyman of Sports Illustrated tweeted that the Yankees inquired about Cubs' ace hurler Carlos Zambrano.

Our View:They contacted the Cubs before signing Javier Vazquez, who used to pitch for the cross-town rival White Sox. The Cubs are willing to move Zambrano, but he does have a no-trade clause in his contract.

December 21, 2009
Jon Heyman of Sports Illustrated reports that the Cubs are willing to trade starting pitcher Carlos Zambrano.

Our View:That being said, he has a lot of money left on his contract, and a no-trade clause. Big Z's days on the North Side of Chicago do not appear to be numbered.

December 21, 2009
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman has discussed the possibility of a deal for Carlos Zambrano with the Cubs, according to the New York Post.

Our View:Still, keep in mind that the same column says the Yankees are much more likely to fill their need for another starter through free agency. Expect Zambrano to stick with the Cubs because, coming off a down year, it's unlikely any team will be willing to give up the still-hefty package Chicago would be asking for in return.
