Michael Barrett, my beloved's Cubs battery mate, has been traded to the Padres. Which means Barrett and Maddux will be together again.

Zambrano is worth more and comes with a bigger price tag, and it's possible no team offered us enough to give up our (gulp!) best pitcher.
And if Barrett had to go, I'm glad he's reunited with my beloved future Hall of Famer. "Reunited and it feels so good ..."
