I think Zito will bounce back. I think it's all of the hype that surround Barry since he won the Cy Young. And he seems pretty grounded, so I think with him trying to play humble got him too soft. What he needs is the desire to pitch again and stop being a Zen Master. He's like a John Olerud out there, no emotion. Let him find his groove and the fun for the game again, then we'll be joking about this.
If not, Carl Pavano will no longer be the punchline of any pitching joke.
