OT: Anyone watching the WBC?

  • USA just took a 4-3 lead in the 8th vs Canada. This is a win or go home game. MLB Network for those that have it.

  • Yes sir....HUGE double by Jones for us. We won't win this thing, too many of our greatest players just don't want to play in this. Especially the pitchers because of when its played. Think of the guys at home....

    Justin Verlander, David Price and Clayton Kershaw, Jered Weaver, Matt Cain, Cole Hamels, Stephen Strasburg and Gio Gonzalez. I get why Strasburg isn't, still coming back from his surgery over a year ago. IF this were played in a different time (which there really is no other way how its constructed) or if somehow we could get our best of the best to play - both pitchers and position guys.....we could do some damage.

    Still, I love it. I love watching the DR play, Japan, PR, heck Italy has amazed so far in this thing. Cuba is good again. Unreal talent around the world in baseball.

    Yeah. I have a college teammate who is Dominican and he has been talking trash the whole time. I wish our top guys would play but absolutely understand why they don't.

    Yes, I've been watching a lot of it. Some great baseball so far. US coming alive last two games.

  • I haven't been watching, unfortunately... Except for the DR game last night, ESPN's been showing everything on the Deportes channel only, which I don't get, and the MLB channel has it, but our package comes with the NFL Network instead (I've asked if they could switch those two, but they won't, which saddens me).

    So I can't watch the WBC. But, to be honest, I haven't tried to find the games through other venues, either.

    Gio is there, he just joined the team late to get in a few perseason games for the Nats.

  • It's been a great tournament so far. Hope the momentum continues for the US. Tough teams ahead in double elimination round.

    Not really. Miami is basically a foreign country.
