SoxAce Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Debating about awoling from work to watch this game. Just the history in itself is worth watching. Just don't know if I wanna miss out on money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 I told u guys the Cubs were a lock and to bet the house. Did anybody follow my good advice? Cubs will wrap it up. It's simple, folks. The Cubs DEFINITELY have the better team. Case closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, greg, despite all of the gambling advice I've ever been given throughout the years, I am going to fold to your gut feel on a game 7, for all the marbles, when the Indians bullpen is fresher than s*** and Miller can come in during the f***ing 4th if he has to, and will bet my life savings on the Cubs.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 This may sound weird, but does anyone else think that if the Indians were going to lose this game, this is the best way they could have lost? Cubs had to use a few relievers, including Chapman tonight, but because it was a blowout, the Indians didn't use Miller, Shaw, OR Allen. All of those guys could go 2 innings tomorrow if need be. Chapman, while he will still be available, may not be able to go multiple innings again after throwing 62 pitches over the past 3 days. Obviously you don't like the fact that the Cubs got confidence and that their hitters are clicking, but the bullpen situation is shaping up nicely for Cleveland assuming they can get 4 or 5 innings out of Kluber tomorrow and scrape a couple off of Hendricks.

Yeah the Cubs are clearly the more talented team but weren't they penciled in as the NL champ before the season? It's not really going out on a limb to predict that. If it's going to game 7 they definitely weren't a lock and the Indians are without Salazar, Carrasco, and Brantley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, if you're looking for a silver lining, that would be it. Rested bullpen + Kluber is the Indians' best-case scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Play the best defensive team. Going to be hard to score anyway. I want Davis/Naquin in CF batting last and Guyer in right. Also, is Gomes a big drop off defensively from Perez? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 33, I don't let emotions enter the picture when it comes to sports. I did that in my teens and twenties. The Cubs are the best team in baseball by a mile and 108 years is enough.

When you group together the season and post season yes, the Cubs are incredibly talented and compared to the Indians SHOULD win the series. But again, this all comes down to one game. Any outcome is possible when just looking at it as one game. If you're position is the Cubs may win because they're the better team, I'd agree. However I'm on the position the Indians have an advantage. The last 40 years comment is a bit ridiculous though when they've hardly dominated even the playoffs. Also the NL collectively is terrible.
