Cashman should get a World Series ring. Miller has been an absolute animal for them. I happen to really like the way Francona uses him also. He is their best reliever by far, so he comes in when Francona thinks it's critical, not just for save situations. It is more of an old school (70s) approach to closers (i.e. Gossage, Sutter, Fingers, Lyle, etc.) and I like it.
Schwarber has a huge platoon split. Doesn't hit lefties much
4-2-2-4, with 2 jacks.

Should be a good series. I think the CHI lineup is going to rake on CLE starting pitching not named Kluber.

Goodness Gracious!
That's a logical thought. On the other hand, Cleveland starters have already shut down two excellent offenses. Can they keep it up? We'll see.
As verducci pointed out yesterday, winning Game 1 is the key advantage.
