will CUBS comeback from 0-3 like the 2004 Red Sox (vs. Yanks) ?

Rich Boy · 10-20-15, 10:38 PM

doubt it

Terps1993 · 10-20-15, 11:00 PM

They would have to beat Matz, Harvey, Syndergaard, DeGrom in that order... tough task

i know it is the same story basically. and anything COULD happen..
but the mets are NOT killing them, they are beating them.

isee how good the Mets are... Mets pitching does not care.
they just close mofos down

really big comebacks happen after a team was killed,
and they rise from the dead. Cubs are still in games.
never down by 5+ Runs..

i suppose it theoretically COULD... but i just feel the Mets
are too dialed in.

what a story that would be if they did, BOTH vs, New York teams

hmm... let me think about this.

Better chance of an ice cube in hell

I say NO WAY... Mets are playing too consistent.. not up and down.

METS ALL THE WAY

Ratzz · 10-20-15, 11:28 PM

looking at this team like this.

who can beat them...? i don't think any team in the last 10 years can beat this team.

they are insane, they ALWAYS come up with the BIG play. ALWAYS

Mets pitching is too good to lose four straight

Jeep_Life 42 · 10-20-15, 11:52 PM

Not a chance!

Better chance of of hell actually existing

i would agree... but ALL OF YOU do understand that NOBODY thought the Red Sox
could win 4 STRAIGHT against THAT Yankee team//

i do NOT think that Cubs can do it.. but remember, nobody thought that either

If you're planning on a Cubs series bet, you better find better ways to spend that money. Mets have the better starting pitching and better closer. Have you watched the Mets closer, Familia? Do you know the meaning of "Familia"? If you want to know let me know.

Ratzz · 10-21-15, 01:39 AM

i think 100% that the METS will close it out... i was just pointing out
that the circumstances are somewhat similar

goduke · 10-21-15, 02:21 AM

i doubt it but if they did it i would consider it a greater task achieved then the red sox series. Difference is the red sox knew the world series was basically the yanks. Even if the cubs did it they would lose to the royals

Mets pitching depth this year > Yankees pitching depth that year

Makes comeback that much more unlikely.

d2bets · 10-21-15, 08:25 AM

8% chance.

If the series does go back to NY, all the pressure will be on them.

Could be more like 2003 NLCS in reverse with Prior/Wood going home.

Probably won't happen. But is it impossible? No, it's not impossible.

Reck · 10-21-15, 09:13 AM

Cubs have had numerous winning streaks during the season.

Chip and a Chair.

One Game at a time.

The final win is always the toughest to get.

All of these cliches apply. That's why they play the games.

Anti karma...The back to the future day. Hate to see the Cubs get closed out on THAT Day.

Should be fun. Everyone enjoy

Ratzz has bailed on the jays and jumped on the Mets bandwagon

d2bets · 10-21-15, 09:56 AM

Not saying Cubs will win, but the Cubs are small favorites tonight, and looking ahead to Games 5 and 6 I would anticipate that the Cubs would again be small favorites in both (Harvey @ Lester; Arrieta @ Syndergaard). Agree or disagree with that?

d2bets · 10-21-15, 10:30 AM

Teams that have not won a World Series in 86+ years are a perfect 1-0 after trailing 0-3 in a LCS.

Like Theo said, just have to win today. One game at a time.

Ok I think this is a little bit of a knee jerk reaction here. Lets look at a list of World Series Winners since 2005.....

Chicago White Sox

St. Louis Cardinals

Boston Red Sox

Philadelphia Phillies

New York Yankees

San Francisco Giants

St. Louis Cardinals^[W]

San Francisco Giants

Boston Red Sox

San Francisco Giants^[W]

The ones that jump out to me right off the bat are the 2007 Boston Red Sox, 2009 New York Yankees, 2010 & 2012 San Francisco Giants,or the 2011 St. Louis Cardinals and there are a couple more I question if this Mets team would beat them....

As far as your other statement or question I think the Cubs can still come back and win this thing and at +1100 odds to win the series I think its worth $25 or $50 shot.
