Baseball Barista | 4-time WS Champion Javier Lopez talks about the 2021 Giants, playoff pressure & their World Series picks

The Baseball Barista with Hunter Pence & Grant Brisbee are ready to bring you a fresh cup of playoff baseball takes. 4-Time World Series champion pitcher Javier Lopez joins the guys to talk about the 2021 Giants team, playoff pressure and they give their World Series picks. The Giants pitching has really impressed Javier this season. He thinks that having to grind all season to keep the Dodgers behind them will help the Giants in the postseason. He talks about getting traded into pressure situations and how things are much different in the playoffs. The bullpen was so key to the Giants winning 3 World Series titles in 2010,2012 and 2014. And the guys gives their playoff picks and who they think will be the World Series match-up and World Series Champion.
