Giants in six!

How some "experts" think SF could win:

Tom Verducci
The Tigers should win this fairly easily, with Justin Verlander going twice in the first five games. But their layoff and defense are problematic, and the Giants rate the edge in bullpens.
GIANTS IN SEVEN.

Joe Sheehan
The Tigers have beaten two teams perfectly matched for them, with offenses that didn't rely on putting balls in play. Now, they face a good offense that gets singles and doubles, and that will make the difference.
GIANTS IN SIX.

Stephen Cannella
Facing Justin Verlander twice is a scary thought, but the Giants will still have five other chances to get into the Tigers' quivery bullpen. Heavy doses of smallball and karma will bring the World Series trophy back to SF.
GIANTS IN SEVEN.
