may be old news. maybe not.

Some tough decisions for the big games - who starts at 3B? Longoria, Chipper or Wright? What about the three OF spots?

I would go with Chipper and Braun/Sizemore/Granderson

 

[Bosox3]

The Dominican team seems pretty good.

 

[Penno]

If David Wright starts at 3B, then this tournament will not exist to me.

You have to figure any kind of lead in the 6th will lead to a win for the USA team. I mean, that bullpen is stacked.

The Dominican Republic's lineup has no outs top to bottom so that should be scary.

 

[cgilmo]

that USA team is configured to win



love it

 

[dodgerchromie]

BROX THE OX!!!

 

[Wes]

I'd bet Korea and Japan should have some success as they did in the last one. Japan will have Daisuke and Ichiro again and added Darvish this time.

 

[Anthony K.]

Did you take a look at the Dominican roster?

Infield alone: Cano, Pena, Pujols, Reyes, Hanley, Aramis, ARod.

Where do you put everyone?

Canada should be decent. Nice to see Verlander and Granderson on the roster.

 

[thenumberonemetfan]

The D.R. Team is STACKED...I love it

 

[Autismic]

Canada has the CLAPP

 

[Guest]

Hawpe!

Watch out for those Italians, especially Giuseppe Mazzanti.

 

[shanevictorino8]

Surprised to see Victorino on the US squad. Awesome though.

:lol:
best infield in baseball history?
2 of the greatest to ever play the game and two young stars putting up numbers that will put them in the tops 20 alltime in their position(after they retire of course).

I completely agree but reyes is 10x's the ss hanley will ever be.

The US Bullpen is going to be lights out.

Broxton/Devine/Fuentes/Howell/Nathan/Putz/Ryan/Sherrill/Shields/Ziegler.


I have no idea how many guys they'll have for the rotation but if it's 5 I'd really like to see:

Danks/Oswalt/Peavy/Saunders/Verlander

Personally I really hope Kazmir gets cut, he doesn't need the extra innings at all early in the season.
