  1. They are already [expletive] their pants. I mean look if the Cubs had been up 3-1 in this series and now it was going to Game 7, I would be [expletive] my pants too. lol. For sure. I'd have a doom boner of Holmesian proportion.
  2. I hope you endure the day well, but remember what's in store for you guys... http://moviemezzanine.com/wp-content/uploads/Indiana-Jones-and-the-Temple-of-Doom-Mola-Ram-Amrish-Puri-heart.png
  3. I don't drink, but a bottle of champagne just went in the fridge, and I have every intention of opening (and draining) it in celebration tomorrow night.
  4. I'm more concerned with surviving tomorrow night. Might need to buy an AED/defibrillator.
  5. It's not the 20 pitches in a vacuum, it's 62 pitches over two games, and sending him back out after he tweaked his leg. Of course this is all in the moment reaction, but his use in tonight's game was simply unnecessary. We were up five (and then seven), and tomorrow night screams close game. I'm all for riding Chapman like the rented mule that he is, but I wan't him as fresh as possible.
  6. This is absurd. For all the talk of Joe being a "confidence" guy, what kind of message does this send to the rest of the bullpen? I think this is the polar opposite of the Showalter/Britton fiasco. Absolutely flabbergasting.
  7. Don't send him back out. I will be legitimately furious if he does.
  8. On the one hand, I really hate this because I want Chapman at full power tomorrow night. On the other hand, this is the trouble spot of the Cleveland order, and blowing this game would end me.
  9. No gift baserunners, please. Especially ones who are terrible..
  10. We should have more runs, but all the hard contact is encouraging.
  11. Indeed, and I think the offense as a whole will benefit and take a significant step forward. The pitching will probably take a step back, but we're going to be a scourge on opposing pitchers.
  12. I wonder how many of these center of attention umps like West will retire when they automate the strike zone
  13. I like the result, but positive reinforcement for a horsefeathers approach
  14. That's just your inner fatalist trying to spring a doom boner. We got this.
  15. I'd think Chapman is available only in dire circumstances. That, and I seriously doubt it comes down to that.
  16. I don't mind Cleveland, so I'm going to apologize in advance for the Cubs having to perform a Mola Ram on the collective heart of Indians fans.
  17. There's going to be a thick fog of doom over Cleveland tonight and all day tomorrow.
