the history of baseball has nothing to do with the present of this series

I watched Boston battle back down 3-0

I saw the Cubs choke away their chance at a WS up 3-1

I know a few things:

1) The Royals are going to be favored to lose game 6. Price > Ventura.

So I have a hard time believing the 75% figure people are throwing around. I give us a 65% chance to advance to the WS at this point.

I'd rather be on the 65 side opposed to the 35 side ... but the 3-2 with 2 in KC is irrelevant. It's two 1 game series for the Blue Jays. We're going to get their absolute best shot game 6 ... and any advantage we have in game 7 is strictly due to the fact that our bullpen >>>>> Toronto. But I'd imagine our kryptonite, Marco Estrada, will be the first Jay out of the pen game 7 if needed.
