Yup. Last night they mentioned how the Netherlands was trying to reach the dodgers to see if they can use him for two innings. Ya know, bc I didn't watch the game last night.... media.giphy.com/media/ysPb8k6gr6l6U/giphy.gifSnoogs------^ Last night's game was awesome. Well pitched and fun to watch. If there was something better to watch on a Tuesday night in March, I'd love to know what it was. Tanner Roark jumped a few notches a shit load FBB player's rankings. |

Leyland can't keep benching Goldschmidt. He's probably the best bat on the team. He needs to sit McCutchen or Yelich tonight...but he probably won't. LMAO... "Yelich" Was Greg Bird unavailable? |

In addition, the World Baseball Classic first round game between Team USA/Team Dominican Republic on MLB Network on March 11 delivered 977,000 viewers to the channel, marking MLB Network’s most-watched non-Postseason game telecast ever. The program grew 11% over its previous record for a WBC game with Saturday’s game peaking with 1.2 million viewers from 9:45-10:00p.

Why ox the only poster are capable of Simply acknowledging that he doesn't give a shit that nobody cares about this tournament because he himself enjoys it? Why yam and chappie have to argue that this tournament has meaning and that people are watching it just makes no sense to me.

While the starting rotation might be a little weaker than expected, I'm pretty sure team USA would win the world series. Definitely not the caliber of your typical AL or NL allstar team, but better than pretty much any single team in either league.

Why yam and chappie have to argue that this tournament has meaning and that people are watching it just makes no sense to me. I posted Hosmer's quote yesterday. Adam Jones said the same. No offense, but I'll take the word of the players over your opinion, OK? |

I cite the ratings only as proof that nobody gives a shit about this ratpiss WBC. Makes no difference if they're up compared to the last WBC. Standing alone, the ratings are putrid, rancid garbage. A representation of the reception that this meaningless crap has gotten. |

If this was a real tournament, the OF would be Trout, Harper and Betts.
Not Hosmer, Yellich and Dickwind

I would say just based on what I've seen on here, there are about 15 people watching/following the games, several who are indifferent and 2 people who think that it's absolute crap. That sounds like a success. And by all accounts it has been a success. |
