I'm rooting for the Cubs, but I'm predicting Indians in 6.

My prediction's looking pretty good. I think the Cubs will find a way to win Game 5 at home then Indians close it out Game 6 at home. Indians pitching is just dominate but some of the Cubs are also pressing.

If Cleveland does go on to win their fans must feel blessed after all that suffering to suddenly win in basketball and baseball in the same year. I'll go out on a limb and say the Browns won't bring home the trifecta, just a hunch.

7-1 Indians, bout to win 2 in a row in Chicago. Speaking of the Rangers these Cubs remind me of those World Series Rangers.

Looks like I'm going to be wrong it won't be the first or last time this series is going 7, unless the Indians can come up with at least 8 runs.

Gotta favor the Indians in Game 7 at home with Kluber who's been lights out. But anything can happen in a Game 7.

This is his second time out on short rest. I like the Cubs chances. 3 times in a 7 game series is risky. these hitters are only getting more familiar when they pitch that often

If the Indians don't have to pitch Miller and the Cubs don't have to pitch Chapman, look out Game 7!

Win or lose Game 7 the Cubs got a lot of young stud hitters, if they stick around and don't leave for the money (Yankees) They will be a contender for years.

If only Jason Hayward was playing Left Field for the Rangers against the Cardinals in the World Series, Rangers would have a championship. Ugh don't want to think about it.

I think he just rendered Chapman less effective.
He might be able to. Lose out a short ninth inning. That's it IMO,

Which curse breaks tonight?




(For the record, there were never curses. Boston sucked for 86 years... thus far Indians 68, cubs 108 = suckage) lol
