"Duff Man…Oh Yeah!"
I think most of us would give a slight advantage in a short series to the Giants in regards to starting pitching. That said, the Braves rotation has been very good (although Jurjens is out). Their top 3:
Lowe (16-12, 4.00 ERA, 5-0 in his last 5 starts)
Hanson (10-11, 3.33 ERA)
Hudson (17-9, 2.83 ERA)
Their bullpen is even better than their rotation. Wagner (1.43 ERA), Venters
(1.95 ERA), Moylan (2.97 ERA), Kimbrel (.44 ERA!)). Couple of other guys are very good also: Saito, and a lefty named Dunn.
I think Tzill predicted that if the Giants starting pitching dominates, we win the series. Makes sense to me. If it comes down to a battle between the 'pens, it's anybody's series. Gotta hope Timmeh, Cain, and Dirty bring their A games.
BTW: with Prado out, who has the better lineup?
