      No way. Save Kershaw for game 6 don't push him for on 3 days rest against Lester.

      I think Cubs win tomorrow though.

        Urias and Maeda still have 2 games left to pitch. If the Cubs lose either of those it's over. I actually think the Cubs win the next 2.

          Cubs just can't put any hits together.

            Cubs win by getting walks. Really in the regular season their batting average was nothing special. Dodgers don't walk many guys. Big start for the young lefty for the Dods tomorrow. He can really put his team in the drivers seat.

              No way they'd do that. Real question is do they go Kershaw in Gm 5 if it's 2-2. I wouldn't if I'm them. You've got to win another anyway, why force him on short rest.

                Has a team ever won a series when being shutout at least twice in it?

                  The only time the Cubs have hit in this postseason, is one good inning in NLCS game 1, and a 4 run uprising against the Giants epicly bad bullpen.

                    The Cubs just aren't getting any luck right now. They have plenty of hard hit balls, that just miss being a homer, or are directly at the defense. Dodgers have been lucky. Cubs win game 4, and the series.

                      When pitchers execute the ball doesn't hit the meat of the bat. Cubs offense is horrific. Just goes to show you that all they've been doing all year is beating up on bad pitching. Too bad there aren't many bad pitchers in the playoffs.

                          Kershaw won last game 1 to zero..even if he starts..he can lose. You guys make it like he's Mike Scott in 86 playoffs....he's not.
