Would have left Jon in there and let Chapman work only the ninth; Jon still had his stuff.

Price is double the cost of Lester and comes with about 1/10000 of the mental toughness of Lester.

Can you imagine David Price pulling this off?
Actually, yeah. He was nails out of the Rays 'pen in 2008, and as much as it was a garbage move in last year's ALDS Game 4, he was really good in relief of Dickey to get the win.

Now, getting him to have a solid October start might be a bit more difficult.

I'm irrationally upset that Lester is pitching for a different team.

Wait, that's entirely rational. Yes, let's let the home grown, cancer beating World Series hero walk so we can throw a ton of money at some other dude that's basically identical.

If the Cubs don't win this World Series I think they never will win one ever.

If they had just lost routinely last night or tonight, they maybe carry it over to a great 2017. But they are too close now. They win it and erase a century of frustration or they simply will never ever be champions.

In 2008 he wasn't

It's a lot of money for a guy with a long track record of suck in the playoffs.
