IMHO, Bochy might be a great manager but.......
If he would have looked at the stats before the World Series started, he would have seen that the Royals' hitters tee off on Peavy. Knowing that, he would have switched Hudson and Peavy in the rotation.
That way, Peavy would have only had to face eight hitters and the pitcher in San Francisco instead of nine hitters in Kansas City. Also, he would only have had to face the Royals once instead of twice.
Peavy was bad in his first outing and horrendous in his second. If Bochy would have looked at the stats he could have seen this coming and done something to prevent it....

P.S. - Nice to see the Royals in the Series (instead of the Yankees or Red Sox) but am cheering for the Giants since I am an NL fan.
