Japan vs Korea, World baseball Classic

I missed it, way past my bedtime. Plus I wouldn't watch in protest anyway. Baseball is America's Sport!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

at least it used to be. :(

hahah I hear you. It seems like everyone from the MLB is playing for another team now. I am a Mariner fan, and the M's had 16 players on the WBC rosters, playing for Australia, Canada, Chinese Taipei, Dominican Republic, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Panama, South Africa, and Venezuela, but NONE playing for the U.S. it is kind of sad seeing that this is supposed to be Americas sport, yet we are the underdog every time the WBC is on. Whatever. They all come here to play, and it is a different story when the regular season starts. :)

Can't believe Korea pitched to Ichiro with 2 out and first base open.

Reminded me of Tommy Lasorda pitching to Jack Clark. :( *sigh*

Yeah, they went off stats, Ichiro has been pretty cold during the classic, hiting .273.. but you can't pitch to him in a clutch RBI situation with first base open. He is at LEAST going to get the ball in play, so why risk it.

    • Svechnikov and I'm voting cause I'm pissed. 
    • He had games where he was a top 10 QB that week, vs Saints, Falcons, Eagles, Chiefs, Bucs.  Amazing performances that I think show what he can do consistently.  He must play with confidence to overcome physical limitations where someone like Cam can struggle all game and then win the game at the end by running someone over. Bryce won’t be that and I am fine with it, it’s time for us to move on to the new era. It’s been 5 long years.
    • We both know there's more that goes into batted passes than just the height of the QB. Most people here have readily acknowledged this and there were numerous discussions about it before we drafted Young. But if you are presenting a POV that Bryce's height hasn't tied to issues with his footwork then there's nothing anyone is going to be able to say to sway you and you know this. Even beyond the footwork I recall a redzone play where Bryce couldn't see around his right tackle at all where a receiver was waiting practically alone in the end zone for a touchdown. There are real world circumstances that are going to show up over the course of the upcoming season and it's up to Bryce and Dave Canales to make adjustments and do anything they can to mitigate negative instances and yes that begins with Bryce's footwork again. Thanks for your time. Have a nice weekend.
