Feel like it's looking bleak for the Jays. Unfortunately.

I care. I'm basically going to have nailed my 3 predictions right on the nose with the 4th (Dodgers in 7) looking good too

If Cleveland manages to win the World Series this year, Cubs should legit consider making a special trade deal to get Francona as their manager. Would have broken 2 big curses/droughts and would go down as one of the greatest ever if he broke a 3rd one.
Maybe 4 if you consider the White Sox breaking their long drought as "by association" since they had to go through Francona's Red Sox in the playoffs that year. |

The Indians would be absolute fucking retards to get rid of Francona.

Maybe if the Cubs sweetened the deal although they could also just wait another 2 years since that is when Francona's current deal expires before the option years become a possible factor.
Then again whole thing assumes Francona wins the World Series and has some mythical curse breaking aura around him. |

Indians either gonna send Kluber out for the Mortal Kombat "Finish Them" this afternoon. Or Clevinger to give Toronto some kind of hope.

If the Indians win tonight, they're going to be idle for a full week while the NLCS won't end until Thursday at the earliest, possibly not until the weekend.
Feel like its happened a lot in the past decade but excessive rest seems to hurt teams going into the World Series. Not much you can do about it. |

Indians locked in. Jays are kind of lolworthy, Cleveland is the much tougher team of the two. Love'm but lost even more HESPECT for Bautista for his "circumstances" comment. So disrespectful.
Jays need a new manager who makes in game adjustments. They aren't going to get one because Gibby just had a 2nd run in the ALCS but this is as far as his managing style can get a team. Francona is a fucking beaut. And yeah elongated rest could hurt the Indians. |

Jays crushed Droford's dreams by beating the O's so they are winners in my book.

Implied MLB and/or umps are rigging the series in Cleveland's favor since they don't want a Canadian team in the World Series.

It's awesome to see a ton of Cub fans at the LA stadium. Chicago fans travel so well in every sport.

I think the Cubs will be fine. Every team has a couple of clunkers in a row. Plus Hill's been great at Dodger stadium.
The Dodgers are running out a 20 year old in Game 4. Tough to see him not having jitters and struggling. |

It'll be interesting if Jays can get it to game 6. It'll be tough, they're pretty much playing against themselves until it's Miller time.
Game 6 means Cleveland could potentially start getting jittery, and they don't have the benefit of good pitching matchups until they go into the bullpen. However, I don't see a Francona managed team coughing up a 3-0 lead. |
