Would You Rather Face the Cubs or the Dodgers in the World Series?

The Indians have won the American League Championship (I know you already knew that, I just really really love saying it). Now the question is whether they’ll face the Chicago Cubs or the Los Angeles Dodgers in the World Series. “Cubs or Dodgers” is not quite as straightforward a question as, say, “Cake or death?” Even with inter-league play, we don’t see these teams very often. Since 1901, the Indians have faced the Cubs a total of 18 times (going 9-9) and faced the Dodgers just nine times (going 4-5). The last time the Indians played the Cubs was a four-game series in June 2015 (with a make-up game in August 2015).
