Wow...one really momentous round #1 match-up:

Dominican Republic vs. Puerto Rico

Also, Taiwan vs. South Korea is pretty big Asian match-up.

I think it bodes poorly for DR that DeJesus found his way onto the roster.

Canada may get through the first round this season. :)

Yeah...okay...now it a huge upset.

Puerto Rico does in the Dominican.

That's two favorites out of the competition.

Mexico vs. Japan the most exciting match-up in round #2...

Canada looks stacked. The fact that my boy Sammy Griffiths, the six-million dollar man (Am I crazy for keeping him for one more season?), can't get any reps in the series speaks volumes about that team's pitching depth.

Seems the Canadian manager has a long memory. Griffiths has never been forgiven for that awful start against Venezuela.

 I feel I should apologize to Argentina for Madrigal having broken up the no hitter in Game #2 against Spain.

As holders Cuba are favourites. I'm rooting for Canada. Dayton's Ed Williams got his first World Classic POTG in the last match and when he plays I always root for Canada.

Hehe. Let's not get too excited about Canada. :). In their first 11 games they faced 13 pot starters twice. They managed to drop a game against Spain, and they only have 1 pitcher in the 90s.

Have definitely benefitted from the upsets.

Venezuela put an end to that. :(

Hehe. Our team is a little confused. Manager goes all out for defense at 2B and SS playing zero bat guys in Hamilton and LeClerc. Then undermines that strategy by using Marshall in left and Turner in right.

Cuba vs. Venezuela in the finals...

...perhaps we should re-title it the Karl Marx Classic!
