yeah, i was thinking it was never about the rule changes.

sad more american starting pitchers not in the wbc. They just making too much money to risk it but makes the wbc seem kinda incomplete. The American lineup is great but the starting pitching is poop. Adam Wainwright our top pitcher and he's 41 lol

@@donkeykong1234 The rule changes are to better accommodate Capitalism. Which incidentally, this tournament is about the same thing… The MLB is trying to exploit future talent/viewership from around the world. We need to get rid of the C word…

That why I mentioned that Baseball is No longer America's Pastime it Belongs to Latin America and Japan Korea and Chinese Taipei Past time now

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f9mgeLp-lse-iKM.html Game is more global than ever and we love it. 🇵🇷

The Pool D games with Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and Venezuela are like All-Star Games played at a World Series Game 7 intensity. Those game are absolutely electric.

@@fudgenuggets405 The Taiwan games were as well. Felt like the Netherlands pitchers genuinely got rattled by the Taiwan fans.

Mlb you have teams with no interest in winning. These games are full of all starts playing with the passion of a country behind them.

Pool D is intense af

The Dominican pitchers will shut down those Puerto Rican hitters. Cueto could get rocked early though but the relievers will shut them down. DR has to show more offense or PR could win with a few runs scored early

​@@Tonyconstanza si, para eso tienen el cy young boca de acantarilla xD. PR les dara trancado. Mi vzla pa' encima!

@@Fabriazpx Alcantara no va tirar es Johnny Cueto lanzador veterano es más humilde

​@@Tonyconstanza Sorry my man, but the Dominican pitchers are pitching at a 76% ratio to bat. I firmly believe that Puerto Rico will destroy them. Mark my words...

@@knockoutartist101 76% what does that even mean? Those hitters will be shut down the Dominican pitchers are on another level you’ll see.

Thank you!!!

as a Jays fan, seeing Berrios have a bad start isn’t anything surprising. he’s either good or bad (last year he would have a lot more bad starts then good, hence his 5+ ERA)

Tbf there was an error on the first batter and if Santanders HR was four feet shorter only one run would be scored in 1st inning. It just shows how baseball is a game of fine margins

not disappointing at all

They will ultimately fall short, they don’t hav the pitching n hitting to compete with Venezuela and DR

@@jakestar121 I'd say he had more good starts than bad, 17 quality starts out of 32, same as Gausman or Quantrill, one MORE than Ohtani or Cease, 4 more than Cortes Jr.

Si pasan otra vez PR y Venezuela a la segunda ronda, que se prepare el resto que vamos a matar. Excelente juego el ayer sin contar los árbitros.

Omar Lopez should not have pulled him. Once he was taken out of the game the pitching went to shit. Salvie was calling a brilliant game from behind the plate and was 4-4 with 5 RBI.

@@fudgenuggets405what was Lopez pitch count when they took him out? There’s a limit of 65 pitches

They're ranked 4th or 5th to win it all and Japan is looking really good also

Anulo mufa

I put them ahead of DR n PR to win the tournament now after what they did to both of them

@@DeRicardo4980 after what they did to PR n DR n the pitching concerns for the Americans, it wouldn’t be silly to put them 2nd behind Japan

We wish all the best to Colombia!

Estoy agradecido de que Omar López haya incluído a Silvino en el roster. Es un caballo.

Is a final!!!

Or it could be completely meaningless, there is a chance that both PR n DR will be eliminated by then, If PR loses to Israel, Venezuela beats Nicaragua, n DR loses to Nicaragua n Israel, Venezuela n Israel advance. N 2 of the 3 scenarios are not impossible cause Venezuela will destroy Nicaragua n Israel had pulling off upsets in the past n Puerto Rico has pitching n hitting issues, I think DR will take care of their own business though

@@slapshot68 Let's be real: these are not impossible scenarios but an upset by Israel or Nicaragua is unlikely. But who knows, baseball is impredictable sometimes

concuerdo con usted, siempre me ha parecido una tontería que le llamen serie mundial.

Se llamó World Series porque al principio la patrocinó un periódico llamado World News, y con el tiempo se le quedó ese nombre.

@@Individuo80 Pues de debió llamar como el periódico y no como la llaman ahora y que serie Mundial

Lo mismo pasa con este torneo, me gustaría que se llamara "World Baseball" y no "Classic". Pero bueno son gustos.

@@Individuo80 interesante dato, muchas gracias.

Or it could be meaningless, silly as it sounds, there is a scenario where both PR n DR could get eliminated before their matchup, very tough for that to happen but not impossible, if PR loses to Israel, DR loses their Nxt 2, Venezuela wins their Nxt gm, and Israel wins their Nxt 2, both would get to 3 wins n will hav clinched a spot in the quarterfinals

Tenía que hacerlo. El catcher se desgasta mucho y el propio Salvador pidió relevo.
