    Kansas City Royals -115 to win the World Seeries

    This is why I feel KC wins the crown.
    After you get past Bumgarner, the rotation for the Royals is better.
    Even though Giants have a very good bullpen, KC's pen is lights out after six innings.

    KC plays pressure ball, put the ball in play, pressure the defense into errors with disruptive speed.
    You can't defend speed, you have to keep them off the bases.
    Even though they did not hit a lot of homeruns, KC's power has woken up, and they have three in the middle of the order that has hit 20 or more in a season with Gordon, Hosmer, and Butler.

    KC has five gold glovers on defense, and you can make a case for seven.
    Sal Perez is the best defensive catcher in the game not named Molina, Hosmer has won gold in 2013, Gordon has won gold in 2011,2012, and 2013. Lo-Cain will win gold this year......

    I am not expecting a blow out, I got KC in seven, SF can win this if they get a lead early, take out the bullpen factor, SF can win this if they keep the jack-rabbits off the bases.

    Yes, I am aware that SF has the better manager in Bochy, has two rings, and has more experience on the bench, Ned Yost has been to the playoffs 11 out of 12 years as a coach for those 1990's Bobby Cox Braves teams.

    However, KC does have home field, and KC has nine impact players that can change the dynamics of a game and ultimately the series.
    KC has more game changers than SF does.

    Nobody is blowing anybody out, it goes six, probably seven.

    KC 2* to win it all

    My heart is with KC.
    My gut says Giants in 5 if they take game 1.
    Just going to pass on game 1 and go off the outcome of that for the rest of the series.
    I love the dog price on SF with all the experience.
    Line is awful on KC for the series regardless.
    Giants should be -150 EASILY.

    And you can't bet the under (well you can) at 6.5 because of the tied in the ninth 3-3 factor.
    I beat the shit out of the under seven, I'd pound that knowing I can get a push at 4-3.

    A lot sharps are playing KC in game 1.
    It's astounding.

    Dr. Chalk, Benjamin Lee Eckstein loves the Royals tonight in game 1.
    I respect Benji, yes, he bets chalk, but he's the most successful chalk better I have ever seen

    All I know is that the Royals won't win both at home. So bet accordingly.

    If you're smart in this series and know how to get the best live lines you could well end up getting real nice +$ on both sides.

    In that case Giants game 1 is probably a good play.

    Gotta think Bumgarner gives the Giants the best chance to win...

    Not necessarily. Ventura doesn't match up well vs sf.

    I don't get all this the Royals love.

    Nash, let's bet 2000 points on this. I'll take the Giants at even money to win the series.

    Granted, I don't have the points right now, but I will in time. I'm good for it. Are you interested?

    Peavy is one of two SF pitchers that I think will be an 'X' factor.

    Normally I would, but I have a 50 dollar futures wager on KC to win it all at +2000

    I got enough KC action, trust me.

    Yes, he will be X"d out of the boxscore. Don't give Jake too much credit.

    I'm always amazed at how people can find old posts so fast.

    I have no recollection of even writing those.

    By the way, I was about to hit you up for a 2000 betpoints loan. Nash's legs got all jellylike though..

    All right, pal.

    2000 points on the series. I've got the Giants, you've got the Royals.

    Do you want to start a thread in the points forum, or are we good here?

    By the way, I might be a little slow paying, too. I'm good for it though.

    If KC gets this one they may sweep
