If you fade the Indians in the WS.....................

[stevenash]

You are flushing money down the crapper.

Doesn't matter if it's LA or Cubs, that pitching staff 1 through 10 is on a mission from God.
Oh, by the way, that line up can rake too.

Don't fight it, Cleveland is destiny's child.

Re-read my post, the pitching matches up well against either NL team

[BetweenHerCheeks]

[cankid]

not sure anyone can hit Andrew Miller in any league right now, throws 4 pitches at 3-4 diff speeds

[lakerboy]

They won't be favored. Cinderella usually loses.

Kc was not cinderella. They were there the year before. Books only made mets faves cause of the arms.

[pavyracer]

AL team wins it this year. Too many turds on Cubs or Dodgers.

[stevenash]

Define CInderella then, Cleveland has the second best record in the AL one game off of Texas and won the division in a sleep walk.

Do what you want, I've been eating sleeping and shitting baseball my whole life.
Indians are 1990 Reds all over again.
Nasty boy Reds were +220 'dogs against Bash Brothers A's

No way Reds were winning that series, right?
Lucky to get one win, right?

How'd that work out for Oakland (broom sweep)

[goduke]

Like KC last season?

Kc was not a Cinderella last year. They were the year before that and lost. That being said if the dodgers beat the Cubs they are both highly unexpected to get this far so they cancel each other out

[goduke]

Didn't realize laker already said the exact thing haha

I interpretted "Cinderella" as underdog.
KC were 'dogs in that series.

Oh, there have been plenty of Cinderella's in World Series history.
1990 Reds
1996 Yanks, Braves were 2:1 favorites there
1997 Fish
2001 Snakes
2003 Fish
2008 Phils

And on and on

In 1954 Indians were 3:1 favorites over the Giants
1954 Indians won 111 games (154 game season)
They had Bob Feller and one of the greatest pitching staffs assembled.
Giants as three to one dogs steamrolled them 4 games straight.

The layoff will hurt them. The team with the longer layoff often loses the world series.

I'd be interested in seeing statistics on that.

[champlain]

I don't have stats but some examples are, detroit in 2006, colorado in 2007, detroit in 2012, mets last year.

Good points on some of them, Colorado wasn't winning in 2007 though whether it was one hour rest or one year rest.
You would think Mets would have benefited from the layoff last year.

[trobin31]

Indians will be home team regardless, I like their chances

[AngryMale]

Tough for me to say but one thing I noticed nobody raise here was Indians Also have a managerial edge.

[Philmill]

Indians Pitching has got to be number one...... If they can keep hitting...... done deal....!!!

[BaseballChaser]

Who is the best starting pitcher the Indians have faced in the postseason? Not saying they'll lose, but it'll definitely be tougher regardless of who advances
