Carlos Z is the Cub's Heavy

Carlosmanoymano

I wish I had a deal with MLB so I could make legal t-shirts, because I would love to wear this one.
Through all the Big Z years, I have totally believed this about him.
Do not mess with Carlos.
Besides just being a giant man with a frightening fastball, he's kinda crazy - the absolute best kind of combo.
And as somebody on LOHO pointed out, he's got absolutely no filter when he opens his mouth.
Lastly, he's looking really good this spring.
Here's hoping that for the first time ever he comes screaming out of the gate and starts winning in March.
God, that's only 13 days away!

Anyway, I did pretty much this same Carlos painting years ago, but I can't find it.
A Chicago music house, Earhole, is having an art show.
I'm gonna put a few pieces in there, so I had to re-do this one.

Hey Marina, I wish I was super fast, but there's alot of layers in there, actually. I'm too chicken to just go with the hard lines...
