Carlos Zambrano has signed a minor league deal with the Phillies.

http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/9277801/philadelphia-phillies-sign-carlos-zambrano-minor-league-deal

Quote"We got a feel for his desire to come back and his sincerity about that, and what kind of condition he's put himself in. It's a minor league deal. We're not signing him to a $90 million deal like the Cubs did, but you still want to get a guy who's committed and is going to conduct himself appropriately. As far as we're concerned, that was satisfied."

Sick burn, Phillies guy.

Why do they need Z at $90 million when they have Cole Hamels and his ERA+ of 95 and 0.6WAR for the next 6 years at $137.5 million?

Nothing really. Philadelphia has the most forgiving fans in baseball. They'll understand if he struggles, especially at home. I really don't see a downside to this.
