What Do I Know?


 That would seem to be the question of the hour, as Kyle Schwarber went 2 for 4 last night with 2 rbi’s in the Cubs’ 5-1 win over the Indians.  The World Series now stands tied at one game apiece.

Stubborn South Sider that I am, I’m not willing to admit being wrong to oppose activating Schwarber for the Series.  What happens now with the action shifting to the National League park, which means no more DH?  Does Schwarber play the field?  Left field, really?  Good luck with that.  And remember that in going 3 for 7 over two games, he’s struck out the other four times (and, yes, plus two walks).  With the game on the line in the seventh inning or later, Kyle Schwarber will not be facing right-handed pitching.  It’s going to be lefty on lefty.

So, like I've said, we’ll see.
