I get that. You still have to leave something in the tank for the next day. Who knew 24 hours ago that the something would be a journeyman who has more trades than saves?

3. There are limits to the gains from tactical wizardry. The starkest contrast this postseason was between Baltimore Orioles manager Buck Showalter and Cleveland Indians manager Terry Francona. In the wild-card game, Showalter did not use this season’s best reliever in an extra inning game. In the first game of the Indians’ Division Series against the Red Sox, Francona went to his best reliever, Andrew Miller, in the fifth inning to squelch a rally. The Orioles lost their one playoff game and were eliminated; Francona guided his team to Game 7 of the World Series.

Metra (the commuter rail system us suburbanites use to get in to the Loop) has already posted a warning on their web site that trains will be "crowded and off-schedule" tomorrow, due to the expected mobs of people coming in to the city for the victory parade and rally.
