Lester-Hendricks-Arrieta-Lackey is my choice. Hendricks at home; Jake on the road as the backstop if the Cubs go down 0-2

It’s going to go Lester, Kyle Hendricks, Arrieta and John Lackey. We all know that.” I personally hope he’s right.

Jon Lester draws the start in the finale. This was just announced yesterday, and most importantly it sets up Lester to pitch Game 1 of the NLDS.

First I’ve heard of any sort of NLDS roster alignment already.
