Carlos Silva is calmed by ... Carlos Zambrano

Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times gives us a real man-bites-dog story today: Carlos Zambrano compassionately helping a teammate through a rough emotional time:

“Right after I finished pitching, I texted Zambrano, and I was telling him, ‘Man, I don’t know what’s going on,’  ” Silva said. “What he told me in the text was, ‘You just need to forget everything, go out there and pitch and do your thing. You know how to pitch, you did it before, so why can’t you do it again?’ It’s true.’’

Carlos Zambrano: the voice of reason. I like it!

Now excuse me as I tag this post so I can quickly call it up again come May when Zambrano has a meltdown of his own.
