Maddon is such a fucking boob

I like to think that this is Happ's last chance (not tonight, just generally speaking) to stay in the positional rotation with any degree of regularity. At least then one can assign reasoning to it, irrespective of it being good or bad.

Heyward puts together a couple of nice 3 hit games in the 8th slot and now he’s hitting 2nd all of sudden

Nice double by Bryant. Hit 'em where they ain't.

Did I just hear Len right in saying that Happ hit over 400 in the month of May

Sure seems like Zobrist is having a rejuvenation of a year so far.

THE OFFENSE IS OFFENSIVE

I certainly hope not ... as of tonight he was hitting .241 ... his on-base is at .421 though - that's probably it ... and that's pretty surprising to me.

Gotcha thanks. I came in right as he said it and I couldnt tell...thought it was average. Still pretty encouraging tho.

Way to wiggle off the hook there, Q.

I guess so long as he doesn't let runs score, I'll live with it.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

Happ missed that high fastball by about 2 feet. I cant wait to see this dude traded or sent down or given ricin.

Damn Heyward smoked that ball. Shit.
So... does Q give back 2 in the bottom half?

He tried to murder that guy.

Good win

Good win indeed. Zo continues his comeback season, Q goes 6 scoreless, Heyward may be figuring it out and the bullpen continues to kick ass.

Now hopefully MIL cools down. Next series for them: the White Sox. Oh well. Look for a MIL sweep.

MIL is like the volcano in Hawaii. They just keep shooting flames out their ass and torching everything. There is no way they should be winning at the clip they are with some of the shit sandwiches on that roster. Half their team is guys that ran out of options and where DFA'd. Saladino is total shit for 2 years and the day he shows up there he is a .350 hitter with 3 hr's in about 2 weeks worth of spot duty. They trade cash to get this 45 year old catcher Kratz from the yankees and he hits a freaking home run in his first game after having like 2 ab's over the last 2 years combined.

That's my purse! I don't know you!

Mil is playing over their head right now. They will come back down to earth.

Maybe but 538 has the Cubs/Brewers race pretty close

They've had quite the run over the years of choking opportunities away ... doesn't necessarily mean they will this year, but it's not like it would be breaking new ground.

Good start to the series despite some of the early Quintana issues. Zobrist will go down as one of the more under-rated second tier stars.
