CHICAGO — In his first season with the Chicago Cubs, right-hander Eddie Butler feels right at home.
“The guys are all welcoming here,” said Butler, whom the Cubs acquired from the Colorado Rockies in February. “They have been since Day 1. They all have a common goal, and that’s to get back to the World Series and win it. They think that I can be a part of that and help them get to their big goal.”
Butler will make his fifth start of the season when the Cubs open a three-game series against the Miami Marlins on Monday night at Wrigley Field.
