World Series Prediction

Division Series Record (4-0)
Championship Series Record (1-1)

World Series

Detroit Tiger Vs San Francisco Giants

The Giants are back in The World Series bitches and they looking good! Pitching has been dominant, the bullpen has been on lockdown and the lineup has been lights out! But the same can be said about The Tigers, in the ALDS they were a little shaky on offense, but they got over that against The Yankees in The ALCS. These teams matchup well against eachother both of their batting lineups are full of power and score a lot of runs in many different ways. The Tigers Miguel Cabrera and Prince Fielder can light up any pitcher but you also have to watch out for Delmon Young who was the ALCS MVP, he's been on the verge of doing some really big things since he hit the majors a few years ago and I think he has finally found his place with The Tigers. The Giants lineup is full of scrappy players who can come in and get the job done, they will get on base, get steals and most importantly score runs! I think where The Giants will have the edge will be with their pitching, starters and bullpen. The Tigers do have the best pitcher in the league, Justin Verlander, but outside of him the others are a little shaky and the Tigers bullpen has been horrible for most of the season including the playoffs. The Giants starting pitchers have been solid all season besides Tim Lincecum, which is odd since he's been the one carrying the team over the years. The bullpen has also been lights out stepping up with the absence of Brian Wilson. The Giants have overcome A LOT of adversity throughout the season, they've had a ton of injuries, won the division even though they started the season off poor, overcame being down 0-2 to The Reds in the NLCS and came back from being down 3-1 to the defending Champion Cardinals in the NLCS. The Giants are looking good and ready to win another Championship!

Giants over Tigers 6 games
