Blue Drake fans.

Confident?
Apathetic?
Nervous?

4-0 in elimination games. I'm fairly confident with Price and Stroman lined up. I know Price has been crap so far, he's due for a good game. Not to scared of Ventura.

Revere needs to start getting on base in that lead off spot for JD and Bautista though, can't have him keeping on hitting soft liners to the infield.

Let me ask you something though.

If Price gets rocked on Friday and doesn't get out of the 2nd or 3rd inning, would you want the Dodgers to give 215M still?

If Price's contract functions independent of the team payroll (as in you don't give up a bunch of other players to cut costs or avoid filling holes in the rest of a rotation/bullpen) yeah, I think most teams would be silly not to. Playoff choker or not, he's money in the regular season and when most teams miss the playoffs you need to get to the postseason first. Price makes your team better in that pursuit.

Depends on Greinke.
If no Greinke, why not? I may not want him at that number though.

I think it's fair to say Murphy is having the greatest post season run in sports history. At least the most surprising.

And with that loss Cubbies, I'd like to welcome you to the world of expectations that most NL teams don't have to deal with.

You'll get a pass for this loss.
But the city of Chicago (again I live here) wont stand for another postseason L like that.

You've seen the Cubs play before, right?
