Wonder if joe buck would suck you off too?
As much as he looks like Christopher Lloyd, I'm guessing he hopes buck turns into Michael j fox and can rub him out at 88 mph with that Parkinson's disease

I'm a Giants fan, but Posey is the worst "superstar" in the game right now. Between his double plays and getting tossed at home, he is not worth that contract he signed.

What's the problem here?
This is one of the more intriguing game 7s in awhile for me.
I'm anxious to see what SF does with the pitching staff. How quick is the hook for Hudson? Then, do you go to MadBum right away or somebody else? Did they pull Peavy early to eat a few innings up? It's almost as if SF made up their mind that today would be a committee approach. Keep KC off balance. I'm not sure that's the right move, but Bochy's resume is slightly better than mine. I'd throw MadBum until his arm fell off. KC has made zero adjustment to him thus far.
I'm also anxious to see how this young and inexperienced KC team handles the situation. Will they come out flat like game 1? Or, will the savage approach shine through like game 6? Defensively, they need to be on top of their game. Making the routine plays and stealing a few hits could prove to be the difference. Also, can Guthrie get them to the pen with a lead? How will the pen respond when it matters most? Who do they use to eat innings if Guthrie struggles early?
Game 6 was amazing to watch. Ventura looked like a kid in a candy store. Here, hit this. The KC bats were alive and well but, as previously mentioned, SF could have simply been eating innings in prep of today. In any case, the on field play and at the plate was wholly ironic. KC looked like the more experienced team. SF had some mental breakdowns (see Brandon Belt) and horrible plate discipline (see Buster Posey).
I had said that Baltimore-KC was my World Series, and it sure was a thriller. But, I've gotten very interested in the chess match of this series. If this turns into a manager's game, it's difficult for me to bet against Bruce Bruce (and alot has to do with some of the bonehead decisions Yost has made).
I'm taking KC because I believe in destiny. Those kids love the game and it's been loving them back.

The Orioles made journeyman scrub Jeremy Guthrie look like Cy Young.
Bochy is about 40 times the manager Yost is. Yost will go to his pen early and follow the formula. I think the game will be tied late and one of the KC 3, probably Herrera since his run is absolutely unsustainable, takes the L.
Buster Posey homers off Herrera and the stat nerds will blow a prostate.

What's the problem here?
In a way, Herrera is incredible. His stuff is electric, and moves. In another way, he's beatable. His location is sometimes awful, which really should mean baserunners and/or bombs. We shall see.
Yost will definitely have the whole thing jotted down on paper. Bochy will play it as he sees it.
