I don't know, the 2015 ALCS Game 6 is up there as well.

Yeah and he barely survived that.

Wade has arguably not been quite the same since.

And it was still totally worth it.

No, I'd say he's been the same, slightly less effective, but still a big weapon.

He went from cyborg to fantastic.

Still good, but the man was on a historic level from 14-15.

True, and we were very fortunate to have the Cyborg years.

I would suspect it would be easier if the Cubs have someone that resembles of Hochevar, Herrera, and/or Holland to make it more easier.

That's what makes me so very appreciative of the Royals bullpen in 2014 and 2015. I doubt you'll ever find a bullpen that can be this lethal for some time these days.
