So, I don't really give a shit, but I wanted to know what everyone else thought...

Who wins the 2009 World Baseball Classic?
(Looks like Canada won home field ($100 there is a snow delay in at least one game))...

WBC is a scam, they leave out half the Carribean/Central American countries that play baseball. Curacao, Argentina, El Salvador, etc, all have players in the majors.

They need to dump all the fail countries: australia, netherlands, italy and south africa then add colombia, honduras, nicaragua and costa rica to make it interesting.

Curacao is part of the Netherlands. There have been a few players from Netherlands proper as well. I can't think of any players from El Salvador, and I'd bet anything that there aren't any from Argentina.

Cuba played in 2006; I think they made it to the finals against Japan.

VENEZUELA

We're gonna rape Canada and Italy, the match against th US should be interesting. After that we get our revenge from Dominican Republic and then win this shit.

Oh wait, we won't because LUIS SOJO is the fucking manager and only wants to call his buddies so they can have a gay orgy on the bench.

True about Curacao and El Salvador, but here are some countries with current major leaguers and a ton of guys in the minors that aren't represented:

1. Colombia (the Cabreras, Edgar Renteria)
2. Nicaragua (Padilla, some others)
3. Argentina (not sure of any current major leaguers, but they have a great program of preparing, of all things, knuckleballers).
