| It saddens me that I don't know like half the players on team Canada including the first pitcher out of the pen whom likely just blew the game. Lawrie being injured also sucks they only positives being Votto and Mourneau being a good 3-4 hitting combo. The fact that Shawn Hill is the game one starter for Canada is beyond awful. I was excited to watch today I really was but this is brutal. |

No options other than Hill.. Francis? Beard? Mathieson? The Brett Lawrie strained ribs sucks and I'm not expecting Canada to get out of group
Next WBC should be better. Jameson Taillon, and a couple other prospects |

I wish their rules weren't so liberal as far as countries. 1 guy playing for Spain is from Spain.  _________________

I don't think it's a big deal. |

There is a thread, but it probably hasn't been posted in for a couple of months. _________________
