Anyone that's watching WBC games today, have at it. I'm currently watching Netherlands-Dominican Republic which is bizarre. The Netherlands are up 3-0 in the second.
Eugene Kingsale just grounded out. Japan beat the crap out of Korea this morning and I'm pretty sure Orestes Destrade is going to give himself a hernia rambling about his days in Japan. Two Drinks Gary is on the mic for NED-DOM.

oh man
I think the Netherlands dropped a ball on purpose to make it a double play. They’re underhanded and evil.

How he’s never been a Royal is beyond me. Top five most likely Ponson destinations:
1. Nationals (they love crappy Oriole rejects)
2. Royals
3. Padres
4. Brewers
5. White Sox

Every time Ponson talks about how he’s ready to get back into the league and be effective and some doofus on TV tries to talk about it like it’s a real issue, I get kind of mad. I’m a big dude too, but I would think the first step to getting back into professional athletics for Ponson might be lose some fucking weight.

Sut is obsessed with "energy"
“The energy in the stadium REALLY pickin’ up with Pedro Martinez in here.”
Crowd: “…”
I think perhaps the energy in Sut’s pants picked up.
The Orioles should call Pedro. I’d be all about it.

I was in Toronto yesterday for the WBC game
awesome atmosphere….. 42,000 people, great seats scalped right behind the u.s. dugout, i’ll post a picture at some point…. fun time
guthrie is the man! he is loving the WBC. He was the first U.S. guy out of the dugout, and he just signed autographs for an hour straight. I asked him “What’s the deal jeremy? When are we bringing up Wieters?” he said “I think he quit.”
Guthrie is a legit guy, and he loves representing the U.S. team. Go U.S.A. and go O’s

It was weird
JEter was playing catch with Pedroia before the game, and Youk with David Wright. Never will I ever see that again!! It was also hard rooting for MFY and PHN players…

Has anyone seen the stats on Hiroyuki Nakajima?
He’s a shortstop from the Seibu Lions and is hitting .600 with 4 walks in the WBC.
In last night’s game against Korea, his line was:
AB R H RBI BB SO AVG
4 2 3 2 1 0 .600
On Thursday, he walked 3 times, ground out, and scored a run.
Please tell me that MacPhail is considering him as a longer term solution at short. Dude is fast with a .972 total fielding % and is only 26. Those 21 HRs, 32 2B, and 96:55 K to BB ratio’s not bad either.

he could be signed by NY or BOS sooner than later. Neither one of those team has shit as SS…hahahahahahahaha!!
The blues have always been American, as American as apple pie. The question is...why?
