World Baseball Classic next March
« Topic Start: July 11, 2005, 02:32:49 PM »
I'm really excited about this new international tournament...a World Cup for baseball.  

The Americans should be the favorites to win the tournament.  I think the Puerto Ricans, Cubans, and Dominicans will play very well.  If the Japanese players union agrees to the tournament, it would be fun to watch how the Japanese would play against the Americans or Caribbean teams.   Asians, North Americans, and Latin Caribbeans have very different styles of baseball.  

I wonder where the championship round will be played in the United States?  I think Yankee Stadium would be the PLACE, but the weather is too frigid during March.   I think MLB will encourage the tournament folks to choose a warm weather climate location; probably Dodger Stadium, Minute Maid Park, or Petco in SD.  

I should share my dream lineups for some countries in the near future.
