4** MLB POD Game 2 World Series - #Royals vs. #Giants

[Pick Bot]

Royals -119 4* MLB POD
The disadvantage in this series is clearly coaching, but tonight I don't think the coaching will matter as Ned Yost will send a much better starter to the hill for game #2 in Yordana Ventura. Ventura has completely dominant stuff built for this type of game with his average 97mph fastball and nasty breaking stuff that should keep Giants hitters all night long considering they have never faced him. The Giants are 7-16 in their last 23 as a dog and will send Jake Peavy to the mound who the Royals are quite familiar with and quite fond of facing with nearly 200 career AB they essentially have a .300 average. Butler and Gordon both have averages over .300 against him and Peavy's 7+ ERA in his career post season play leaves a lot to be desired. His last 3 stops at Kaufmann resulted in early exits allowing 15 ER combined over 17.1 IP.
