If they don't use Miller, Salazar, Meritt after some hit trouble in the 3rd or 4th you know Tito/Dolan wants the game 7 money, and have way too much trust in Kluber.

All the sports writers are saying the one decision that won last night for the Cubs was putting Chapman in, but it's not true. The one decision that won last night for the Cubs was leaving drone boy in after giving up a homer and a double. And I don't want to hear any of this hindsight garbage every Cleveland fan couldn't believe he left him in during the game. I said take him out and put in miller after the homer, clearly the guy is slumping 3 innings is more than anyone expected from him.
What you are going to hear is this manager is what got you to this position. To second guess him now shows desperation on your part. Real easy for us to make these claims just like that stupid guarantee I gave for last nights game.

Oh wonderful another 3 day rest argument, how did that go for you last time :P
Did you watch the games? You think K pitched better in the second game with three days rest?

He broke his protocol that he's been hailed a genius for this whole post season.

If he got the same calls as the first game he would of, no doubt. I'm not saying one way or another, but strike threes he got in game one he didn't get in game 4, so ya I think he did as well.

I hope that argument goes better next time. (How's Kluber on three days rest twice in a row??)
If they don't use Miller, Salazar, Meritt after some hit trouble in the 3rd or 4th you know Tito/Dolan wants the game 7 money, and have way too much trust in Kluber.
Tito managed every playoff game this year like it was game 7, I have no doubt he will try to do the same in game 6, if he has a lead.

He didn't have as good control in the second game. Can you get jet lag from a short flight that clouds ones judgement?  :)

Keep telling yourself it is just a game. As I watched some the expressions on the fans faces last night you would have thought the life of their child was on the line.
The announcers said, there is no way this can be fun for a fan.

Everyone in the Jake was calling for Merritt or Otero. Very surprising that Tito left him in considering how quick he pulled Tomlin in game 3.

Here is advice for those that took CLE to win the WS. To understand this advice you have to think rationally. Bet the same amount on the Cubs and you are a guarantee winner. Leave your emotions at the door and take my advice. This has nothing to do with if you are a CLE or CHI fan.

Jim Rome nailed it in his opening monoloogue today.
Ripped apart Cubs fans for the way they celebrated last night as if they won it all despite being the heavy favorite and winning just 1 of 3 at home. "Ctown wants it just as bad as you"

I am having the time of my life. I am not just a Cubs fan but a CHI sports fan. We have had our fair share of championships over the years!

Merritt over Salazar? Going into game I was scared of droneboy once through order then Slazar, then bullpen.

Did he also rip the players for coming out after the game and saluting the fans when the series is not over?

Are you telling me game 7 he leaves Bauer in after a homer and a double?

Game 7 Bauer isn't even a consideration to throw a pitch unless it's the 20th inning.

You missed the point, he meant if Bauer had been pitching in game 7.
