    I put the hammer down on Det winning whoever they play a couple of days ago, -140 at 5Dimes. I am hoping the odds drop a little after this convincing SF win, wouldn't mind adding more to Det.

    sf is a bunch of utility players and burnt out starters. cain is garbage and spent, zito we know, vogelsong will never do that again in his life, lincecum only hope but thats only 1 game.........verlander will pitch 25 innings this series if needed. and sf will struggle to score and hit

    detroit 4 sf 1

    The rest will help set their pitching rotation to maximize MS and JV. If those two continue to pitch as they have been pitching consistently for several months now....lights out.

    Is not hitting related to great pitching? Seems like there is a correlation, I may be wrong. Noone has hit JV or MS the past few months consistently. Verlander throwing 100mph heat in the 8th inning of games has nothing to do with the Yankee's inability to hit?

    true, but the tigers simply can not hit on the road. good luck trying to win games in sf by giving up only 1 or 2 runs max, that's what detroit will have to do.

    Go back and Listen to the Last Game Verlander Pitched........ They were commenting on how bad Verander was pitching...... NY had 3-1 counts all night and the Yankees would swing at 1 pitch out of the Zone and pop it up. Dude if the Blue jays were hitting they would have won that game. You had to of seen that. Yes it was becase the yankees couldnt hit, the Yankees slumped against the Oriolesrookie staff and barely got by. SF is full of Grinders/veterans that will work AB's I will almost guarentee Det losses game 1 In fact i am certain.

    I didn't realize the Tigers couldn't hit on the road, the stats would indicate that the are not as efficient on the road, but they are still a very productive hitting team on the road .342 obp at home vs 327 obp away.

    I watch games to see current form, but I use a larger sample size of games to gauge how productive and efficient players are. Verlander and Scherzer have been as dominant as they come the past 2-3 months, I like the fact they will be well rested and ready to chew up some innings.

    Just watch man, Det will be super rusty to start game 1. SF playing loose. Theres a reason why Verlanders Win/lose record wasnt outstanding. Det Is garbage on the road. Det may win game 2, but doubt that as well. Ive seen this many of times, a huge lay off will hurt Det early.If Det comes back to win the Series, well they earned it. I just dont see SF continuing to be down in these series.

    Det faced a in experienced playoff team in Oak, and a slumping hitting team in NYY. You would be Nuts to fade SF in game 1. There in Must win mode. Det wont even show up game 1. with 5 days off they wont have that intensity

    You gonna fade the giants again? Remember when you did that with texas when you had lee(verlander)? I think the series is detroits to win but I would hardly say it would be easy.

    nope, AL leaugue will not win untilthey actually win the Allstar game. U guys Must be blind. Detroitplayed in the Worst Division in Baseball. Still didnt have a great record. Det took advantage of a rookie roster in Oak,and a slumping old Yankee team. SF comepletly diffrent
