World Baseball Classic 2017: China vs. Cuba Pool B Gamethread

Oh, and the records thus far are

Cuba (0-1)

China (0-0)

>one and a half hours early

Cuba is shit but can they really lose to China? If China wins is this the biggest meme tournament?

Israel has made these threads so fun. I hope this game will be half as fun as the jew ones.

fucking communists

>>74553549
China usually finds to win a game somehow, so wouldn't surprise me

this is always the biggest meme tournament though, a single game of baseball is practically a coin flip

>>74553737
Pisses me off. Imagine how dominant the US could be if our players and organizations weren't such faggots.

I could having that attitude if this was every year or two, but once every 4 years? Come on!

>>74553777
trips confirm our players should stop being pussies

can't wait for some player to get injured probably for some bullshit reason like sliding into a bag badly and everyone blames the WBC for it and calls for it to be cancelled

>>74553806
Is there a better time to set these up? Everyone bitches about how spring training is dumb and too long, so why does it matter if they choose to play in a tournament that happens once every four years?

Even if they play WBC at like 80% to protect themselves, then that is cool too.

That's one issue with the WBC. It should be like soccer. Once you declare and play official matches for one country, it should be extremely difficult to switch.

So are they going to play The Internationale instead of the usual national anthems?

We don't have "softball" here, we have "rounders" which is basically softball but with a one handed bat. There's a decent amount of amateur baseball leagues though, this bat is from Canada and is 20+ years old, I guess he played it during his travels in the army.

It was 7-1 when I went to class this morning
Is Cuba decent or will Australia have a chance?

>>74555620
Right, with the expectation of Gio Gonzalez there isnt much but back end guys and bullpen arms.

Postion wise though they can compete with DR and Ven though.

Daily reminder that Abreu, Cespedes, and Chapman were discovered in the WBC.

If your not scouting and plugging in these cuban lads on your roster your team might aswell be contracted.

Japan is stuck in the 80's. They all pretend the lost decade never happened. It's why their computers suck and things like bunny girls are still popular there.

>>74556011
