    Giants make it to world series? Even year

    We all know about the giants finding ways to win the WS in the last 3 even years. Does anyone believe they can do it again some how in 2016? Its a long shot for sure but every time I watch the giants in October they grind out runs better than anyone. They are a team that relies so heavily on small ball, but in my mind I rather have a team manufacturer runs then rely solely on the HR to score.

    As we seen ONCE AGAIN last night, any team with Mad Bum in October has a chance. I put a couple bills on them to make the WS and another to win. I think there is a lot of value on them beating the cubs in a 5 gamer, my only worry is that Bum may only get the 1 start in thus series. What say SBR

    No play for me on futures -- pick them in spots throughout the postseason though. Last night I was able to get them $1,000 ML at +150. I would try to finesse live bets in their series against Cubs rather than betting anything outright.

    Unless Bum can pitch every game the rest of the playoffs they have not much of a chance.

    I don't even think they Win Gm 1 with Cueto to be honest. And if they can't win with him, then will be a major uphill battle. I think Gm 1 is very very important for Giants.

    you would have to offer some plus money for me to take it. sure wont do it even money.

    I know they aren't the best team in the NL, but how often does the best team make it to the series. if they get through the cubs, they run all the way to the series

    yup, game 1 is huge. they have to win game 1 if they have a shot against the cubs. But and a big but is as they say, a series doesn't start till someone looses at home. I see this series going 5
