Netherlands vs VenezuelaSP: Antwone Kelly vs Ranger Suarez Venezuela, a championship contender but perennial under-performer, look to start off on the right track. Netherlands (aka Curacao and Aruba), not really a championship contender but perennial over-performer, looking to pull off another WBC upset and cause some chaos in pool D.stream on tubi. also Cuba vs Panama I guess
fuck i was hoping cuba was going to be dogshit this year
Panamabros…we got too cocky…again.
Panama is all speedy black guys
so /mlb/ for Cuba v Panama?
>>153750178just post here for all the games I guess.probably won't need a new thread until the USA game maybe
>>153750189What time is that?
expected a better crowd for Venezuela even though it's an early game>>1537502208 easternwillson what the fuck are you doing out there
>>153750189I don’t like that you divided the threads. WBC is slow and doesn’t need a whole new thread. You’re doing that so people can lick USA’s asshole and say theyre the best and have the most fans. Fuck you and your thread.
>>153750232id like to watch this but what the fuck is tubi

I'll be posting about VEN-NED here.
How big of a loss is Profar?
It's weird not seeing Altuve in the lineup
>>153749977>UnderperformerBasically you expect a team of star players you know to to do well? Like they didn't spend the last 5 months in California or Florida drinking, eating, not thinking about baseball and partying>OverperformerKids who are on the fringe of the lineups, free agents and talented individuals looking desperately for joint citizenship through a parent so they can get publicity and a contract. A lot of people who love their country think players really give a shit about loving their country, but they don't. You already got the bag, you gonna enjoy life, ease into spring training and know nobody is really counting the scores until about June, you need money, you're gonna spend September-February in the batting cages, with coaches to fix your faults in fielding or pitching, analyzing your form in your throws trying to get a spring training invite. It's pretty easy logic if you don't love your country.
very graceful Ronald
>>153750319what the actual fuck are you on about
dutchbros...
>>1537503102023 team was better no doubt
Never doubted Luis :)
infield in in the first inning is an odd choice
back in my day Netherlands was a real team, Simmons or Didi would have made that play.
>>153750340We gotta see, too early to judge.
Salvy "gidp" Perez
Excuse me?
Not even dissing Savvy but I swear I have NEVER seen him get on base despite seeing his stats. I might be cursing him.
>Cienfuegos>playing for Panama>>153750391what's the issue
>>153750397One those flags doesn't belong
>Abreu
Excellent pitch, that was disgusting
Stream has just been showing MLB tv, now I’m pissed.
fucking sportsnet. Has like 6 channels and sees the need of throwing trade deadline on 4 of them, Jays spring training on one, and Cuba-Panama on the other. Ven and Netherlands on their website only. You would think they could manage to get all the games on but no. 4 fucking channels for one """"show""""" to see where random 4th line plug will go for 4th round pick in 2035.
>that was Moncada's first home runs vs a LHP since 2023what the fuck>>153750403ah, that's that weird Dubai league, I thought it died after the first "season" (which was like 4 games long). No chance that shit will succeed.Pakistan though has a budding baseball scene, pissed me off that they weren't even given a chance to qualify for the WBC this time. They probably would have been btfo but they deserve a chance at least, how is baseball going to grow there if they can't even enter any tournaments or anything.
HOLY FUCK WHAT A CATCH

>Cuban base running worse than their dinghy sea riding

What a weird ass roster
>>153750304might be their best hitter. Bogaerts and Albies are pretty average these days. Raffaela more of a glove guy also. Surprised Balentien isn't on this team, even if he had to come out of retirement he'd still be one of the best hitters on this team
>suarez

That was minimal damage desu. Nothing world-ending.
>>153750582Venezuelan sign stealing
seemed like it should have had no chance from the spiked pitch to the wide throw, but they made t happen
Mexico vs Great Britain starting soon. Upset potential here, Mexico is a bit overrated and GB has a decent AAA tier team.

Any of you old enough to remember this?
Using a proxy for tubi to watch the game and it works. It is not listing WBC for the Canadian version. I think CTV has the rights in Canada and i don't want to sign up to their site.
>>153750808>>153750821>>153750825put all the matchups in the OP if you don't want to split threads
>>153750844Yea we kicked their culos
No one remembers this
>>153750847sportsnet in Canada. Mostly on their streams though today as they need at least four of their feeds for NHL Trade Deadline and another two for the Jays spring training game.
>suspended for touching the umpiesGOOD
>>153750844I didn't follow Baseball that much back then and yet that game is one of my fondest memories watching live TV
>Kirk and Tellez,Why are these FAT FUCKS on my baseball team? Let's throw in Pablo Sandoval and Vogelbach too. Oh, and make Alek Manoah the starting pitcher.
>>153750883>fondestGetting your ass kicked by Leafs was a fond memory?
>>153750886yes, please. Team Thicc would roll the WBC.
>Panamaniac baserunningyikes

there's been some nifty defense in this Cuba Panama game

Miggy knows Estanista is SHOOK unfortunately
let's see if Panama can get it done against "elite NPB closer" Raidel Martinez
>>153751002is this is canonical meme of mlb?!!?!?!
Huge single from Willy
>>153751060he looked pretty good to me.
>>153751060they did notCuba gets off to a good start, not sure about their pitching depth though. Moinelo was their guy, but I think he can pitch again in the last group game if they need him
>>153751107well he's an elite NPB closer after all
Mendez clenched his cheeks at that JUDGEAN foul
>>153750776just like your soccer team

Are we deadass going to choke our lead?
breaking news, ford walks!
>>153751278You have this. Chechia and Netherlands and Uk, are shit Euro teams with no baseball history. THey just barely got in and are the first teams to be eliminiated. The next round is when the real tournament starts.
>>153751289Mariners legend.
Acuna's lazy ass wouldn't have made that play for the Braves
>>153751297Don't underestimate latino hubris, besides it's still 3 runners 1 out
>butto>is buttThey get AI to write the script this time?
When does Lucas Ramirez hit the big leagues and start mindfucking New York?
We got out of that as good as it can be
>>153751356Nobody cares for Venezuela, nobody watches Venezuela. /mlb/ is a pro-Maduro genny. Have dogs, eat more dogs.
>>153751390>eat more dogsBased Marindgers-anon!
I like Venezuela because I want a new team to win and they have the best chance
Acuña got SONNED there ngl
mexican hitting has been fucking abominable dogshit this game
Acuña sucks, can we deport him?
>>153751403I wanna see how far they can go. Everyone knows the top teams are gonna go far. Japan looks totally unstoppable. I'm curious how far Korea, Canada, and Australia, are gonna go as well. I think Venezuela and Domicican Republic can go pretty deep.
>this thread Baseball>other thread shitposting about whiteness
>>153751497Mexico seems to bring out geopolitical stuff every time they play. Ignore it, they’ll be eliminated soon enough.
>>153751506>they’ll be eliminated soon enough.We are making a deep run
>>153751497>>153751506It's the same pair of faggots that post the same shit at each other every thread they're in. Football is over so now they shit up baseball threads.

in hindsight, thank god we split the threads
>8 games today>none for the next couple hourswhy
>>153753106Dominican scheduling.
Mexico wins! Now First Things First will talk about baseball :D
>>153753211>immediately start talking about lebron jamescan't make it upnext they'll talk about the NFL draft somehow
>>153753278kek, I knew they'd go straight to lebron, they don't even talk about basketball, just lebron and la.
I'm going to make a new thread for the night slate and no one can stop me. I think USA will have it's own thread so I'll put the three other games in the OP
>>153753471Just finish this thread dummy.
Is this an invitational thing or did we actually beat someone else to qualify?
That other thread really exposed mexican/Chicano inferiority complex to Argentina.
>>153753538b-but the games are not in the OP>>153753626you qualified for the 2023 tournamentthe way it works is only the last place team in each group is "relegated" and has to try to re-qualify for the next oneit's pretty gay, I wish they'd expand the qualifiers, maybe only the quarterfinalists get spots in the next one or somethingalso the qualifier tournaments are indeed just a handful of arbitrarily invited teams
>>153753657Who the fuck is worse than us? lol
>>153753657We have a bunch of WBC threads, that's what people look for, no need to flood the catalog like the soccer cretins.
>>153753677Colombia finished last in that group last time. GB saved all their best pitchers for the game against Colombia, meanwhile Colombia was left with the dregs of their pitching staff because they actually tried to beat Mexico (and they did) and the USA (and took them to extra innings).to be fair GB almost beat Mexico also
>>153753699>>153753677Just be happy GB isn't in Pool C with the Australians, Japs, and Koreans.
>>153753691"flooding the catalog" kind of reminds me of some boomer baseball fan saying a guy who walks a lot is clogging the basesnot every thread needs to be a general or get to bump limit
>>153753723There's no reason for spamming threads that will get 170 replies.
>>153753791It's not spamming, it's a new thread for a new game, revolutionary concept in modern /sp/ I guess. /sp/ is slow as fuck anyway, not like any good threads are getting bumped off. At any given time there's 4 or 5 of the popular generals because they take so long to get bumped off
>>153753802Okay buddy you go ahead and make your Nicaragua at Dominican Republic on Fox Sports 2 thread that gets 50 replies, it's the principle of the thing or something.
>>153753854it's almost ready
>>153753867I won't be posting in it so why not make it right now?
>>153753882I had to prepare it, and make the image and shit>>153753906
I hope Colombia wins, but only because I like upsetsI don't care about either teamSame reason I am rooting for Nicaragua(And because their capital is goofy like their name, Tegucigalpa)Brazil winning would be funnyI don't even know who is the favorite between taiwan and czechia, they both suck
>>153754010It should be competitive right?
>>153749977This was just a warmup, we're saving ourselves for the big game.
The biggest reason I want new threads with the countries mentioned in the OP and the flags in the picture is because a part of me hopes a wild Colombian or Czech or Brit or whatever see it and maybe checks it out. Maybe they don't even know it's happening until they see it. If they see it and get redirected to this thread that's fine too, who cares. But I'm going to keep making the threads.
kek, I love the public access music they use on the wbc broadcasts, it sounds so cheap
>>153753791It’s Chikaner. Nobody asked for this, he just doesn’t want to see us Hispanics bet any attention.
>>153753906>>153753906>>153753906use this thread until USA game starts
>>153753718Korea sucks
