>>153831996Taiwan vs KoreaUSA vs ItalySatoriasorry but we play to win here
>sweeps your tourney
Jake > Jomboy
is there mercy rule in the later rounds? If so we could get multiple, Puerto Rico, Canada and Korea are going to get spanked.
>>153832152im not memeing anymore, but what makes you think the US could mercy rule canada?
>>153832169We did it last time we played them

mclean on the mound for the final, who says no?
>>153832211I will drag Skubal to miami at gunpoint to keep this from happening
>>153832186>yay!I'm so happy.
>>153832202This match up was promised 3000 years ago

Let's keep it cubspie related
>>153832252
Do they really just have American players play for other countries so that it's not a complete blowout?
>>153832269NEED a jewish gf
>>153832252Alice genny
>>153832265
>>153832280yes
I love the WBC so much bros. For every snooze fest there are three kino games and even major blowouts can lead to interesting situations like Korea-Australia and Italy-MexicoAnd they have great crowds. It just reminds everyone that MLB game crowds are so fucking boring. You’re not allowed to have big celebrations, or cheerleaders, or bands and flags
>>153832291frazzledrip
>>153831945Unless Korea beats the DR it will be Skubal vs Japan in the semis

>>153832169we have no bullpen
I am plenty confused 2bh
>>153832451they reseed after the QFs I think
>>153831976rolling us then getting flattened by the DR
>>153832093>I hope Korea humbles DR>I hope the angriest mid-tier team humbles the friendliest top-tier team I don’t even know where to begin
>>153832460DR don't have good enough pitching. The US survived their one scare. We're winning this with ease
>>153832463I mean just look at this guy, how could you say no to him?
>>153832058that seems very likely thoitaly will stomp PR (unless the US wants to be homos), venezuela v japan will be good tho
>>153832476>italy will stomp PR (unless the US wants to be homos),wot?
>>153832476>>153832483I am confused by the purpose of including the word “unless”
>>153832451USA always gets the easiest path
>>153832310I can’t wait for the DR-Korea match on that day, I will be a Dominican I need to go buy some corks and a lighter
>>153832454really? on what basis?
>>153832513>DR>EasiestReally?
The regular season is going to be so dogshit, just make the WBC 162 games already.
>>153832528Unfortunately, MLB (USA) is the law.
>>153831976They look pretty bad bro idk
>>153832586Yeah but we've got Webb Friday and Skenes for the DRThe final anything can happen. We can have you out there.
>>153832460>>153832468I think DR is winning it all but who knows.
>>153832606>>153831976>>153832586oh wait, /skeenz/ for DR? hell yeah we're getting a rematch with italy for all da mahbals!
>>153832606Can have me?
We should trade for Vinnie and kill Harper
Skubal you FOOL
>>153832651which game will kershaw relieve in
>>153832666Kershaw is good enough for Canada.
>>153832651Nolanbros..I'm nervous
I really think that this Republica Dominicana lineup maybe the best lineup we have ever seen in baseball history. I don't think that's hyperbolic to say.
>>153832677nothing to worry about he won't pitch again
>DUDE they have ESPRESSO in the DUGOUT!Italy is the reddit team
>>153832691USAs lineup is better thoughalso have you heard of the all star game
>>153832692Who do we have to replace him?Kershaw?I mean it's a game 7 who it will be a Johnny Wholestaffer but someone has to startMerrill Kelly only went an inning and 2 thirds in 23
>>153832651>DR has no plate appearances against any of these 3
>>153832390based but >cusb
>>153831945Wrong graphic DR and US at on the same side of the bracket
>>153832723USA team literally has nothing. No chants, no celebrations, no identity, just a bunch of boring assholes led by a human bowl of tapioca pudding
Skenes Witt and PCA should be the leaders in 2030
>>153832759>No chantsare you trying to say "USA! USA! USA! USA!" isn't a chant?

Skubal should hold another press conference and talk about how hard this decision was for him
I have a feeling Venezuela is going to cause an upset and beat Japan. Other than that though, pretty easy wins for Dominicans, Italians, and USA.
>>153832814Who is each team starting? Venezuela has some really good hitters
Why do so many latin players have 5/10 wives?
>>153832825Ranger Suarez for Venezuela
>>153832836Ooo I really like that.
>>153832832You mainbitch for loyalty
>>153832825
>>153832742idk but usa gets heemed in the semis
>>153832849We will have Skubal starting and he can go 95 it will be fine
>>153832857I meant Skenes godfucking dammit
>>153832774>>153832775Then wtf is this>>153832777DR and US play on the 13th, on the same side of the bracket they will meet in the semis
>>153832862new to baseball? haha
「Subject to change」kek
love a good trick
>>153832941kek
>>153832892Whoops I fucked up lol
They really need to have this shit in one country, not all over the damn globe
>"runner up"
>>153833008it was in literally two places, the gulf and tokyo
>>153833018 (me)forgot PR is a bit east but close enough
>>153833024So what you're saying is it isn't in the same place?
There's no way DR loses this right? Unless Skenes shuts them down and goes late into the game, I don't see how we beat that lineup
>>153833042USA can easily put up 10+ on DR
>>153833036yeah, it's in two placesthe gulf plus PR (caribbean sea) and tokyonot all over the damn globe
>>153833042DR is playing Korea next and the US can very easily lose to Canada lol
cal raleigh is such a faggot man, I'm going to enjoy his descension back into obscurity
Canada plays good and wins the A pool, their reward is to play one of the best teams ever assembled in an elimination game. Also, the incomprehensible rules for who qualifies is stupid. They need to do something about the rules of the tournament.
>>153833101The winner of the pools should have a by to the semi finals. The second place teams play in the quarter finals to see who goes on. The semis should be the next day to punish the second place teams and give an advantage to the pool winners.
Is there any good baseball games for PSP
>>153833047Yeah, on paper we can. But will we actually? The USA couldn't score against Britain until they put in a reliever who hadn't pitched in the majors for 5 years. Lorenzen completely shut us down. We're not exactly looking invincible here
>>153833115it would be the 2nd and 3rd place teams playing in the QF for the numbers to work but I'd probably like that. What I want more than anything is for the elimination rounds to be best of 3. Expand the rosters if you need to so you don't compromise player heatlh
What is the counterplay to this?
>>153833047Doubt. If the US struggled against Mexico, and got gaped by Italy, doubt
>>153833090I’m just glad I don’t have to hear about faggots simping over his ass
>>153833084No way we lose to Canada. If there's any game these guys are actually going to go all out for, it's this one. They want the experience the Olympic hockey team had
>>153833138Maybe rank the teams after the pool play. The top team plays the bottom team, second team plays the second last team etc. Like the NHL conference playoffs used to be back in the day.
>>153833138I like the best of three series idea, I'd like to have seen the some of the match ups more than once in the tournamentexpanded rosters, and I guess if time was an issue they could cut it back to 4 team pools in a 16 team comp
>>153833152Canada is better than team Italy on paper. The lineup is pretty solid. The question going in was Canada's pitch depth, and they passed the test.
>>153833144the runner on first base should steal home directly from first as it’s a shorter distance to run. Those clowns in the field will never expect it. Socko, free run

>>153835077this is their world series, please understand
>>153835077That's why they can't beat even average teams. They're way too toxic, there's no good leadership, and everyone's working against each other instead of working together. Plus, they're all super entitled.

Breaking: Pete Alonso has confirmed that he was not invited to play for team USA, who went with Bryce Harper and Paul Goldschmidt at first base. Alonso mentions that team Italy did extend him an invite but he chose to decline as he and his wife have a newborn baby at home, their first child.
>>153831963I think Japan cucks them again. Too many US players still acting like this is a Sunday beer league in preparation for the real baseball. Any other team, the talent pool is too big. But you never know with single game eliminations.
>>153835657He could've gone over Harper, but family comes first. Same thing happened with Jose Ramirez.

>>153835676He’s not doing too bad in this tournament. He’s about average in terms of RBIs and stuff. It’s tough to really step it up this early, but at least he’s not the worst player like Cal Raleigh and a few others.

What are the chances that the 2027 season gets locked out?
>>153836625If the dodgers win? 100%If the jays win? 100% (last time canada almost won 3 years in a row the sport nearly died and they cant risk it again)not going to bother listing the rest of the teams
>>153836625What does locked out mean
>>153836671The owners "lock out" the players from playing during intense labor negotiations, so there are no games
>>153836601>anon from /mlb/ you’re on the air…
>>153836688I just want to say that I like baseball. I also like hot dogs. Thanks
>>153836688>Thanks for taking my call, what do you think about Team USA having Giambi start tomorrow at first, could he make a difference?
It seems really stupid that the games on Friday overlap time wise. There is no need for that. USA and Canada should go at 3ET. That puts it over lunch on the west coast and late afternoon. A lot will tune in in NA where it matters. Put Korea and Dom at 8 ET or 9 ET. That puts it mid day in SoKo and in prime time for much of NA/Carib where it is going to matter. That and both games are split up enough that everyone can watch both who wants to. They did that on Saturday for those games so why not Friday? So dumb.
>>153836688First time listener long time caller. Can you explain Italy to me?
>>153836671You’d probably be better off just googling it, it’s pretty complicated. American sports leagues all have a labor agreement between the owners and players called “the collective bargaining agreement” it’s an agreement that dictates many things in the league. They’re typically 5 years long. The current CBA will expire after this season and there is a believe all around baseball that a new agreement will not be reached in a timely manner, and therefore the owners will “lock the players out” meaning there will be no baseball for a indeterminate amount of time

>>153836707>8 pm german timeThat would be reay good for watching it.
>>153836740so I have been told. I hear those Florida Puckcats and Colorado Snowpussies really drive the ratings. Must be that they are stocked full of local American heroes like the Toronto Blue Jays are.
>>1538367463pm ET = 8 pm german (and most other european countries) winter time
>>153836765They could have made the italian games at 3pm or 4pm ET then most italian would have been able to watch it.
>>153836681>>153836723Thank you
>>153836781have Italians actually been watching the games? I know they got mentioned in parliament there and that the Mexico game was on national tv. Has there been a lot of local interest? I would assume it is building a bit more now and especially will if they get past PR.
Mark DeRosa is live taking questions from reporters. He claims he was aware he needed to win and there were tiebreaker rules to consider.>t. Bunbunmaru Sports
>>153836822actually I intentionally put my team into the DR bracket to avoid the team with half their roster benched due to insurance, its called master planning t. derosa
>>153836831Another DeRosa masterclass
>>153836707Well first of all you should know this isn't like a world cup that's being run by an international organizationIt's an MLB product made for TV and Fox is paying big money so they aren't gonna put the biggest game for Fox on 3pm on a weekdaySame thing during the Olympics when all of Canada's games but one was played at 10:30 am instead of 3pm because despite being Canada being the biggest hockey country NBC paid the most money for the Olympics so team USA gets all the prime primetime slots
>>153836831>>153836848Are other managers even trying?
Is there a baseball international organization?
>>153836852not being run by an international organization is no excuse.
>>153836866Yes. WSBC. They run the Premier 12 and other competitions. Obviously they are not as big as FIFA or even the IIHF.
>>153836822Clay Holmes went back to the Mets because the Mets thought he wasn't getting enough playing time while on the rosterDeRosa said a dumb thing but I don't know if he could have actually done anything differentI remember in 2017 Chris Archer was the American ace and then he was only allowed to pitch once
>>153836688BABA BOOEYBABA BOOEYHOWARD STERNS PENIS
>>153836873I'm just saying that MLB willingly putting their main market team on at 3pm in a weekday is fucking ludicrous
I really think they should allow rebar cored bats, these wood ones snapping all the time are dangerous.solid tungsten carbide would be the best choice but the supply chain is too volatile in terms of bulk material cost
>>153836947College pingswing uses bats that aren't supposed to be more powerful than equivalent wooden ones
>>153836907remember during columbine when a guy called into the news station claiming to be inside the school, and when they put him on the air live he said that the shooter was Howard Stern who was mad that people weren’t watching his tv show? They should get that guy to do the WBC commentary :

US2. DR3. Japan
>>153836964shame they don't have the same kino sound as wood. the ping sound should be softball exclusive. baseball should always crack
>>153836964Yeah they should modernize it though. I mean they don’t still use a ball made from a boiled sheep stomach and filled with green hay and bat guano, right? This is the 21st century and modern PEDs make it possible for even mediocre players to handle solid molybdenum chrome steel bats just as well as the Babe used to swing his old hickory slugger.
>>153836723MLB is such a disaster holy shit
>>153836625The question isn't if the 2027 will be locked outIs if the league will be back before the olympics
>>153835879this is the post of a man desperate for (you)s
there will be a lockout, but it will be over by mid march. baseball will start on schedule like normal in '27
If the WBC is so successful. Why don't these overpaid divas convince MLB to play at the Olympics?
>>153837066Fuck off, I'm hoping baseball season is locked out so it forces the burgermutts to watch soccer all summer long.
>>153836884I can understand that. I have no idea how Cal and Will Smith are dealing with seeing half the playing time they normally would.
>>153837111Because the WBC falls in a dead period for MLB schedule. It's revenue ripe for the taking. Scheduling Olympics mid-season is going to hurt MLB's bottom-line

>>153837229To be clear, it's MLB owners who would fight against a 2-week break in the scheduling, not players

I'm sorry but Savvy looked lost at the plate all game, I would have taken the chance with Geno.>>153832094Amén compadre, fue un buen juego de pelota. Aquí deseando un buen torneo :)

>>153837610DeRosa obviously wants to manage somewhere in the big leagues eventually. He has interviewed for jobs recently, I think. So it's obvious why he's trying to do damage control on the issue.

>>153838025for one last final sunset they should just let him pitch the entire game against us
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOYPld46Pw4this could have been us yesterday>IVC sports reporter Carlos Rodriguez says after being asked for not switching Eugenio Suarez for Salvador Perez, Omar Lopez stated that "Salvador always has a home run at the tip of his bat and he has all of my trust. Besides, he was my backup catcher once Wilson Contreras was out of the game"USA has a competitor in stupidest fucking manager of the tournament. This fucking idiot put all of our catchers in the lineup (Wilson, William, Salvador) and didn't even think about the situation where we'd go extra innings against one of the beefiest teams int he tournament and need a fresh, spare catcher in the dugout. Now it makes sense why Eugenio didn't pinch hit but at the same time it could have been such a preventable fucking outcome.
>>153838631>Salvador always has a home run at the tip of his bat and he has all of my trust.he went 0-5 that game
>>153838646...and he said that, benching the dude who went like this last season (and had a fucking homer this tournament)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDSrZ5Zpdsg
>>153838667To add this is why I can't let go of our loss vs DR, it's not about that they won it's that Omar Lopez literally crippled our fucking offense due to pure ineptitude and foresight (likely drinking just as hard as Judge after the Mexico-USA game) and didn't have the balls to get Eugenio out there for an all-or-nothing rally.
>>153838631Tranquilo, bro. Vas a ganar contra Japon facilmente. Y ahora no tendras que enfrentarte a USA antes de la final
>>153838703I'll calm down, I promise. It's just that DR didn't hold back smashing the ball, meanwhile our manager realized he didn't use the depth of our dugout like he should have and now we will never see if Geno could've extended the game, or end it.
KEK!
