2012 World Series Predictions 

Post#1 » by jonjones » Fri Oct 19, 2012 7:19 am

I know it's kind of lame because one of the teams is already in and the other on the verge of getting in, but who do you got for the 2012 World Series? I'm picking Detroit in 6. I think they'll get their revenge on St. Louis for '06.

Tigers in 5.

Verlander wins World Series MVP.
Eric Maynor is the worst basketball player I've ever seen.

Tigers. I think either the Giants will run out of gas or Detroit's talent will be that much greater

vs

http://espn.go.com/mlb/playoffs/2012/st ... redictions

Texas has the most dangerous starting pitcher, Cliff Lee, and the most versatile lineup the Giants have faced in the postseason.


vs

Led by Justin Verlander, the Tigers' rotation will rule the World Series and put an end to the Giants' incredible run of success in October.


Major underdogs in both series, and in both series, the Giants were going against the best pitcher in the league. Hmmmmmm.

Giants via sweep.

Verlander is over rated. He is a slow starter, so when you get to him in the early innings, he isn't able to get his groove.

SWING AND A MISS! 8-)

This is still going 6 or 7, though. I said Giants in 6 if they win tonight, so I'll stick with that.

just a nasty pitch to close it out, posey's reaction was perfect.
