I have never been a Beckett fan, but he earned his money this series and I am truly impressed with his style. Great job, kid.
As for CC, if I were Shapiro, I'd make a take it or leave it offer and see what happens. CC doesn't take it, trade him. He's a free agent after next season, while he is strong this series has pretty much proven to me that he will never be a #1 and will never be a clutch pitcher. (I am sure that is not a popular opinion in Cleveland. I just hope if we do keep him, he didn't blow his arm out or have some psyche issues now. I've seen too many great arms blowout after choking in the playoffs and World Series.
This game shows that Wedge can trust his guys too long. CC should have been pulled at the end of 5. He shouldn't have gone into the 6th and NEVER should have touched a ball in the 7th.
So we go to Game 6, it is still Cleveland's to lose. Nothing has been easy for them this season, why should this series be any different. I still say whichever team gets out of this the winner, I see them sweeping Colorado. On the other hand, the team could be too beaten by the end.
No matter what this has been the most exciting series this postseason.
