0-3, 5.40 ERA in May
0-3, 6.14 ERA in June
2-2, 1.83 ERA in July
It's kind of weird how Wells was allowed to work through two months of shitty pitching and Z got yanked from the rotation after 4 rocky starts in April.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Butch's world:
Hendry: "Hey guys, you know who has had four bad starts? Zambrano"
Lou: "I know, but what can you do? "
Rothschild: "Well, if it were anyone else, I'd say give him some time to pitch through it. But not Zambrano. At the very least, he needs to be punished"
Hendry: "I know, let's stick him in the pen!"
Lou: "That would be totally fucking awesome, but we can't get by with a 4 man rotation. Especially in April"
All three: "Crap!"
five minutes pass.....
Rothschild: "HOLY SHIT!!!!! I just remembered, Lilly is going to be coming off the DL soon!"
Hendry: "A perfect storm!!!!!!! We get to punish Zambrano, like we all agreed, but we also have a body to fill out the rotation!"
Lou: "Yet again, fate smiles on the Cubs!"

I wish that I believed in Fate. I wish I didn't sleep so late. I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders.
