6/10 Rockies (Hoffman) at Cubs (Butler) 1:20 p.m. ABC

[Bryants Disco Ball]

A scrub poster should start game thread for scrub pitcher.

 

That's all I got. Go Cubs, try to keep pace with the Brewers.

[CyHawk_Cub]

Butler pitches 6 shutout innings, Cubs win 2-1.

 

I might have just finished eating a special brownie.

[Derwood]

No Butgomlery today.

Good: No Happ leading off

Bad: Back to Schwarber

 

Joe is officially insane at this point.

 

 

Also, Addison is back in. We'll see how the croud reacts.

[Sammy Sofa]

EAT POOP, JOE.

 

He went bonkers during game 6 of the WS and never looked back.

[weis21]

Christ

[Schwarber Fan]

The Rockies are going to make the playoffs.

[Schwarber Fan]

EAT POOP, JOE.

 

He went bonkers during game 6 of the WS and never looked back.

 

Ironically, Addison did the same thing.

[weis21]

Rizzo is so so good at pretty much everything in baseball

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Send Butler back to Iowa when Hendricks is back.

i love the fact the cubs are always trailing before they ever horsefeathering get to bat. horsefeathers

[Sammy Sofa]

DUKE, USE YOUR POWERS FOR GOOD.

DUKE, USE YOUR POWERS FOR GOOD.

seriously

 

*Duke says the cubs are, in fact, mediocre*

 

...

 

*Cubs win 9 in a row*

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Start Mongtomer-uh, nevermind

[Aaron_Kennelly]

DUKE, USE YOUR POWERS FOR GOOD.

 

This whole team sucks. It is a bag of asses. It won't be long before Bryant and Rizzo join the others in suckitude.

It's a recipe for sustained success; get them behind immediately so a lineup filled with struggling players presses even more. Add the bonus of battling just to have league average-quality defense, and VOILA: a treading water .500 team out of one that should be dominating fools.

*Cubs win this game 12-2*

[Sammy Sofa]

Damn, based on Gameday, I guess Butler was basically daring that last guy to dong the horsefeathers out of him.

at this point let's just break out the fried chicken and beer

[weis21]

as an ECU guy i hope hoffman has a long and glorious career. but i hope he gets touched up for a dozen or so runs today

[weis21]

fun fact: theo and co. drafted (the now injured) ryan williams after seeing him while scouting hoffman in greenville, nc

[Sammy Sofa]

If Rizzo dongs here then the season is saved. If he doesn't, they are cursed to nothing but listening to Sublime and the Chili Pepps.

They'd find a way to screw that up, too. KFC and Zima.

Fun fact: Theo and Jed saw Hoffman's best start of his junior year. They were going to draft him after that start, but he tore his elbow on the last pitch of that outing.

Actually, the Cubs blew 1-0 and 2-0 leads the last two days. They're shaking things up today.
