Remember That Guy: Carlos Zambrano

Carlos Zambrano is attempting a comeback with the independent league Chicago Dogs.

Is it possible he makes it back to the Majors? Sure. But it’s still not likely.

But hey, there are three pitchers older than Zambrano (who turns 38 on June 1) who have thrown a pitch in the Majors this season. That list includes Fernando Rodney, CC Sabathia & Pat Neshek. Oliver Perez & Adam Wainwright were born just a few months after Zambrano.

He pitched for Yucatan in the Mexican League in 2018, where his fastball apparently topped out at 89 MPH. He had a 5.
