LA used 7 pitchers last night...absolutely pathetic. They should have made Blanton's sorry ass throw until he committed suicide. Now they've got half a dozen weak arms heading into the final two games of the series. At this point they only have 3 arms that can be trusted against the Chubs, so if Kershaw doesn't throw at least 7 innings they lose and if Hill doesn't throw at least 7 innings they lose game 7.
Meanwhile, they've allowed CHI to throw a combined 90 less pitches over the last 2 games so they'll have plenty of fresh arms if Hendricks(whose been rock solid) or Arrieta(a bum who can still give a solid 3-4 innings) struggle early. I don't trust Hill so I think ultimately this series will be lost to the Chubs based solely on the terrible bullpen pitching+management these last two games. Hell, with the way LA's bullpen has ignited the Chubs bats it wouldn't surprise me if CHI racks up 100+ pitches on Kershaw forcing him out in the 5th/6th inning so Dave Roberts dumb ass can throw Blanton back out there to hang another dozen sliders over the plate for yet another 5 run inning.
And even if LA manages to make it out of this series, the fact that they've allowed CHI to whither their pitching staff to shit combined with just one day off until WS game 1 means they'll be fighting tooth and nail to keep relief arms fresh. Add in the fact that Kershaw won't pitch until game 3 of the WS and the Indians have a reliever who just won the ALCS MVP and it's pretty much a wrap.
