Cleveland finished the job in the ALCS, and will go to their first World Series in 19 years, and try to win their first in 68 years. As you probably know, Chicago last won 108 years ago, and last appeared in the World Series in 1945, 71 years ago. LA's last World Series appearance and win was 28 years ago in 1988. Since the "average" team should make the World series every 15 years and win it every 30 (and even more frequently than that before the 1998 expansion from 28 teams, or the 1993 expansion from 26 teams, etc.), at least a couple droughts will be broken. The NL will have at least 2 more games, giving Cleveland a pretty good rest advantage, which their heavily-utilized bullpen can probably use.
