Kyle Schwarber on World Series roster

[justsayin]

Stunner. And honestly, quite brilliant.

 

With a potential 4 games with the DH, he adds a bonus bat to the lineup.

 

Chicago Cubs place Kyle Schwarber on World Series roster

More stunning than the biggest FA signing in the offseason isn't in the lineup?

[Voice of Reason]

I agree Clyde. The headline to this thread should be Heyward dropped from World Series roster.

[woodsrider]

Was Heyward dropped from the roster or just not in the lineup tonight?

[woodsrider]

Looked it up, Heyward is on the roster.

[Voice of Reason]

Okay. Sorry about that. I read in the other thread a comment that caused me to think Heyward was dropped.

Since MLB went to the wild card format 22 teams have entered the playoffs with 100+ wins. Cubs have 103.

 

2 of the previous 22 won the WS.

Winning in the regular season is much different than winning in the post season now.

 

Example #1 my Braves - 93', 97', 98', 99', 02', and 03'.

My personal opinion on that is that teams that run away with the season don't have to deal with adversity, and the pressure is on them because they are "supposed to win"

 

While the teams that have to scratch and claw, build a bond that helps carry them through. They tend to play a little looser, which in baseball is a big thing.

 

Doesn't mean the Cubs won't win it. They are very good.

I'd also just like to take a moment to express how stupid it is that home field is decided by an frickin all star game.

I like it.

Let's just be blunt here. As much as I enjoy reading your rediculous posts for comic relief, your opinions carry no merit.

Thats fine, but I still like it. Id actually like to put more on the line in the game. If your going to have the game make it mean something.

None of the other major sports do this, cause it's an ignorant idea.

Heard he is the first player in the history of MLB to get his first hit of the year in the World Series!
