This is the fall top prospect league, abet with exceptions (see, Tim Tebow.)
Schwarber had a severe "football" knee injury. He was supposed to be out until next spring training.
There is no reason to rush him back for the Series.
Put sentimentality aside.
Just say no to such a roster move.
The World Series could be a tighter contest than the pennant series. You need to keep 12 pitchers on the roster to get out of middle inning jams or extra inning possibilities.
You do not need a partially rehabbing catcher-left fielder to play DH.
The Cubs will already have three catchers on the roster.
Pitching and defense wins championships. (see, Game 6 of the NLCS).
Schwarber may be a great potential player, and a great teammate but there is no need to "reward" him with a WS roster spot. Too much is at stake.
UPDATE:
So Schwarber is super human as a DH in Games 1 and 2.
