I keep imagining that Lester has been secretly working on his pick off move, and will reveal it tonight on the biggest stage...#9highLikeAboss #WhoseTheWildmanNow
I think the Indians win this series. Cubs are a very undisciplined team at the plate vs pitchers who have great command. Tito is by far the better manager and will not hesitate to go to Miller when need be, and Miller will throw 3 innings a game if he has to. I think this series is going to come down to the bullpens. My money is on Clev.

I'm rooting for 7 games first and foremost. If I had to pick a team, I guess I'd pick Cleveland, if only for how cool it would be for dual Cleveland pro sports championships after none for so long. I wouldn't mind at all if the cubs won either, but since they are likely to be back several times in the next 5-10 years maybe the narrative would be cooler for them to come one step closer this year and lose before winning it next year or something.
Either way, really happy it came down to these two teams. Should be a good series
Dude, Maddon is pretty fantastic. He does not play small ball, he uses the bullpen and bench well and he uses splits more appropriately than most. Occasionally he'll let a pitcher hit in a weird spot late in the game, but it has worked out somehow almost every time.
