    I wouldn't be surprised to see Kershaw on short rest again tomorrow night. Maeda has been horrible all playoffs, and Kershaw has been better in the postseason on short rest than rested.

    The line is already released... meaning that Dodgers have said Maeda is the starter. I suppose they could change their mind... but that would not be in their interest. Dodgers have two wins... they can count on Kershaw for #3 and they will have to gut one out elsewhere.

    Well, uhhh, maybe. That's the idea but I wouldn't be quite that sure.

    Dodgers best bet is to concede game 5 with Maeda (which they will do) and try to get a couple wins in Chicago with Kershaw and Hill - both of which were un-hittable with the Cubs lineup

    I'm speaking from the perspective of the Dodgers... I'm a Cubs fan but I have to acknowledge that Kershaw will be favored
