I like that the loser gets the "longest World Series drought" title. There's a lot on the line here.

It still seems crazy that, of all the teams to make the LCS the last two years, the Jays have the most recent World Series win.

Ummmmmm.... KC

The most recent WS win when they entered the LCS, obviously.

I don't know. He's a natural but it's been a long time since he's faced major league pitching. I'm not expecting much out of him but the alternatives like Soler haven't looked great either so why not...

[BDB]

[Norah]

Rough inning there.

[The Argonaut]

Kluber has got some nasty stuff. That third strike on Addison Russell was something else.

[Simple Torture]

All fan bias aside, Cleveland sitting on their ass for almost a week isn't going to play out well for them.

Guys, I'm not sure my keyboard is going to let me type this, but here it goes...veeeeeeeee.......vrrrrrrrrr.......sssssssss.......rrrrrrr......ttttttt.....damn it, let me start again, I'll go very slowly. I may need a drink before I actually type this out. Deep breaths, deep breaths....verb is probably right.

Ugh! That took a lot out of me.

I don't know what I was thinking.

[Simple Torture]

Again, I have to ask: A-Rod, why you gotta be so charming and engaging on TV?

[E.H. Ruddock]

So Lindor huh?

[E.H. Ruddock]

Wtf lester

[Simple Torture]

I can't believe Lester can't throw over. It's so fucking bizarre.

[E.H. Ruddock]

Rizzo really gyrates while waiting for a pitch

[The Argonaut]

Pretty impressive Miller getting out of that. Bases loaded no outs. Go Indians

Well at least the Schwarber thing doesn't look like a mistake. He was very patient up there even if some of his swings were ugly.

I'm happy for him, but I'm sick of hearing all over sports talk this morning that his performance last night was "legendary" and "miraculous". He was 1-3 with two strikeouts. And yes he hasn't played a major league game this year, but he did do rehab in the minors, right? Is it all that miraculous that he got one hit?

It's the same injury that Marcus Stroman had last year, and he came back two weeks earlier than Schwarber. Stroman got the same "miraculous return" treatment, but I think at this point it's fair to say it just doesn't take that long to come back from a torn ACL.

[E.H. Ruddock]

Oh here we go. Schwarber is the second coming of Christ now with that rbi

[verb_to_trust]

He's good

[The Argonaut]

He really is. He was a lot of fun to watch last October, too. He hit some huge homeruns.
