Kluber is awesome but he faces us three times, that won't end well for him.

Playing a Game 7 on the road isn't exactly a match made in heaven and I don't care WHO is pitching in that scenario.

Game 6 was the single most important Cubs game in seven decades and Kyle Hendricks had to be better than the best pitcher on the planet with an entire city and national media audience watching him, and he exceeded all reasonable expectations. That you've dismissed this as a "no pressure situation" is not only wildly inaccurate, it is--in a strong field--one of the most bizarrely unhinged baseball thoughts I've ever read on this forum.

It didn't happen on this forum, but I just had a sox fan tell me that shoeless Joe would've been better than babe Ruth if he were never banned from baseball.

Arrieta had a good game against baumgarner. Hopefully he steps up, he must be one of the more important players.

Arrieta has been fine against right-handers, it's the lefties and the lack of his wipeout 2015 slider that's caused him problems. The Dodgers were a bad matchup for him.

Babe Ruth idolized Shoeless Joe and said he was the best player he ever saw
He said he modeled his swing after him as well, but that didn't mean he would've been better than babe Ruth.
