October 12, 20178 yr QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Oct 11, 2017 -> 10:27 PM) Everyone I talked with mentioned the Indians advancing to the World Series. They won 21+ (??) games in a row and were the hottest team. The Yankees are great for sure, but man, this is crazy! I had the Indians pegged for the WS and winning it. That's baseball and I love it. Always a surprise.
October 12, 20178 yr That epic ab + the lazy ass defense by Cleveland is one way to(possibly) put the final nail in the Indians coffin.
October 12, 20178 yr I can really see the Yanks going all the way... crazy... this game and the bullpen is so important these days.
October 12, 20178 yr Yankees Timeline: -Trade 2 relievers in a lost season for for 2 top prospects (neither of which even played in the series) -Resign 1 of those relievers anyway -Trade for 2 more shutdown relievers -Beat the other reliever you traded last year and move on to the ALCS after a 6 month rebuild I hate it

Both did.
October 12, 20178 yr QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Oct 12, 2017 -> 04:28 AM) The world series? Both did. I think he is referring to the two top prospects playing this year
October 12, 20178 yr Any time an ALC team gets eliminated from the playoffs is a good time. Hope the Yanks take care of the Astros too.

October 12, 20178 yr So the Indians choke a 3-1 lead in the WS and the next year blow a 2-0 lead in the division series. They may be more cursed than the Cubs.

October 12, 20178 yr I think I might be more disturbed in helping the yankees win a WS than the Cubs. Now Rutherford better pan the eff out.

They may be more cursed than the Cubs. The Indians have now lost 6 straight playoff series-clinching victories. That's really, really bad.
October 12, 20178 yr I read they're 3-17 in their last 20 playoff closeout games, that's really bad. I'm still kind of annoyed at them for helping cause all the nonsense last year so good riddance.

October 12, 20178 yr I've never been a Yankees hater so I don't care that the Sox helped them out. That said, that was the one trade Rick has made in the last year and half that seemed a bit light to me from the beginning. Hopefully Blake takes a huge step forward in his development next year.
October 13, 20178 yr Terrible ending to the season for the Indians. They were so hot in that one stretch this has to be considered a very classic fail. Even with their great skipper he has to feel really really low at this point.
