09:14 AM ET 03.03 | Camp Tranquility under new manager Mike Quade turned into Camp Turmoil in the span of one inning in the fourth game of spring training Wednesday when Carlos Silva and Aramis Ramirez fought in the dugout after a three-error first inning. Silva, who by several accounts started the scuffle by jawing about the errors behind him in the first inning -- including a dropped pop-up by Ramirez -- won't be disciplined, Quade said, and Ramirez said he already has put the "misunderstanding" behind him.

Jumped on this one! Zambrano says he's cured and he's ready to lead the Cubs. HA that will last a month. Now Silva is starting it up in spring training with his infield. The Cubbies will be entertaining the nuts that take off work to watch them lose.Quade has his hands full.

That is kind of funny. They seem to have Zambrano acting like a normal human being, and now Silva starts this crap in the dugout.

Who care's about the CUBS??? They havn't won a chip in so long and will probably never win another one.

It never fails. Should have given the job to Girardi, then had a chance for Ryno. WTF! At least us Cub fans will get a steady diet of Quaid-ludes this year to put up with this bumbling group of ball players.

No one named Carlos should be allowed on the team, unlesss its Santana, and he brings his DVX. Thats my joint.

Disappointing there.

Lou would have beat them both silly...

I don't see how Ryno would have prevented players from fighting any more than Quade did.

I don't see how Ryno (or anyone else for that matter) would have been able to prevent players from arguing any more than Quade did.

14 errors so far this Spring for the Cubs. Not surprised the pitchers are getting grumpy.
