Carlos Zambrano and 10 Hot Starts About to Come Crashing Down

Carlos Zambrano has been a lot better than the Miami Marlins probably dared to hope when they acquired him from the Chicago Cubs for a bucket of baseballs and Chris Volstad.

Better yet, the Marlins can lean back and smile knowing that the Cubs are paying a huge chunk of Zambrano's salary.

I hate to be the one to rain on Miami's parade, but there's simply no way Zambrano is going to be able to maintain his hot start all season long. He's going to come back down to earth eventually.

While we're on the topic, Zambrano isn't the only hot starter who is going to come careening back down to the surface of the planet in the weeks to come. In all, here are 10 hot starts that I'm not buying.
