Everything else can be argued either way. Acting like the Yankees will get swept.... lol. Cleveland fans getting cocky after blowing a 3-1 lead in the world series??. Point being don’t put the horse before the carriage. Series could go any way. Don’t see a sweep from either side. No one should feel 100% confident outside of Cleveland in game two. Indians have the two best starting pitchers in Kluber and Cookie in this series. They both should finish in the top5 in cy young voting. No reason to believe in a sweep if Bauer gets the win tonight. Getting cocky but bring up something last year? At least Cleveland never blew 3-0 lead, Amrite yankees? Also if you want to talk about the World Series, the team with the strong starting pitch won. Kluber couldn’t finish his off his 3rd start in a series. Indians only had Kluber last year. Look at this match up and Cleveland has the better starting pitching.

BleedTheClock Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 I don't really like baseball. But I'm going with the Indians because I live in Cleveland. Probably 5 games...assuming it's a 7 game series? I don't even know. Super fairweather baseball fan over here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lmao. Gimme a list of current Yankee players on that team and gimme a list of current tribe players on the 16 team. Nice try tho. And carrasco over Sevy is a stretch. This year at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better starting pitching, better defense, equal offense, equal bullpen, better manager Just now, bigbadbuff23835 said: You really gonna compare 04 to 16? Lmao.

This year at least I understand that but this 17 team is a lot different than last years 16. This team is a lot deeper off the bench, have a healthy starting pitching rotation, and have two players finish in the top10/15 of MVP (JRam should be top5 and Lindor should be top15 maybe top10). cookie over sevy is not a stretch. Sevy is a 5.7WAR and Cookie is a 5.5WAR. Adv stats have both at 7 and 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adv stats have both at 7 and 8. 1) That's a legitimate statement...as opposed to chalking up the series outcome solely to the rotation (2011 Phillies) 2) The difference is negligible, with WAR and the like you need to recognize margin of error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NateDawg Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 It’s really early, but Bauer has that tight breaking ball working well so far. Seems to have his good stuff. Sometimes you don’t know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
