World Baseball Classic
teams are set, who hype here?
>pool B
>italia
>israel
pool B is actually pretty good, all 4 teams are solid, taipei is probably the weakest
israel is just a bunch of jew american cunts though so fuck them. But they could have players like braun, kinsler, pederson among others
italy will also be a bunch of italian american cunts so fuck them
pool A is absolutely fucking shit though. I think it's the 3 worst teams in the tournament, and Japan. since Cuba can't use their MLB guys. Even if they could they wouldn't be elite since their only good starter is literally dead now
>not combining all asian teams for a mega pool of death and rioting combined with political tension that is thousands of years old
really a missed opportunity.
...
when a """""sport""""" organizes a World Cup ersatz so it can feel like the big guy
>attempts to grow the sport internationally are a bad thing
What could have been, Jews out.
Why is Pakistan so shit, lads?
Ranked 23rd in the world, above Great Britain and Israel. Stat padding from beating the likes of Nepal regularly.
International baseball rankings don't really mean anything
rough rank based in mlb (and npb) talent
1. USA
2. Dominican Republic
3. Japan
4. Venezuela
5. Cuba
6. Puerto Rico
7. Canada
8. Mexico
9. South Korea
10. Netherlands (Curacao and Aruba)
11. Colombia
12. Taipei
13. Panama
14. Brazil
15. Nicaragua
Italy and Israel are somewhere between 5th and 10th with their American players
The rest don't really matter
One Pakistan team beat the other 14-0
>npb
If the NPB champs were to play the Triple A champs, I'd bet on the american team and win big bucks.
Aside from pitching, NPB is minor league tier.
Maybe, but the best players in npb are onbiously MLB level.
>2 brazils in semifinals
could of had a brazil vs brazil final. makes no sense though.
>could of
Also bottom was losers bracket retard
chinkies and the merchants
What the fuck is this and why are we participating
>we
it's literally all caribbeans who don't even speak dutch
That makes sense
There is literally nothing stopping Cuba from winning.
>Colombian in the same group with DR and USA
Its ogre before it even began.
this isn't the first year
Please watch our sport
how the fuck are we in there? people care about football here more than about baseball lmao.
and we will still lose. Embarrassing
You did have a player from Rotterdam but he was murdered by his brother
>Australia
Wew
MLB players of Jewish heritage are allowed to play for Israel
surely we can beat a non existing country and the jews, right?
Kokubo OUT
Taiwan might outmeme you
it's coming home
Are there some actual italians in >our team?
>SHOEHORNING ISRAEL INTO THIS TOURNAMENT
FUCK BUD SELIG FOR EVEN ALLOWING THE RULES THAT ALLOWS ISRAEL TO FIELD ITS TEAM. THEY COST COUNTRIES LIKE PANAMA, BRAZIL AND NICARAGUA A SPOT IN THE TOURNAMENT SO THEY COULD JERK OFF TO THEIR ZIONIST FANTASIES IN A BALLPARK.
I going to guess no.
About a third of them typically iirc
>In the same group as u.s and Dominican republic
Looks like we won't be making out of the group stage again
What even is this?
How did we qualify for the baseball classic?
No one even plays baseball here
I'm mad Brazil choked it. They're supposed to be the next baseball frontier.
It was a double elimination tournament, genius.
There's a bunch of Americans Jews who do though
Wow Mexico is RIP in pieces
Our island niggers will fuck your shit up.
Kind of bogus that Team Israel is just anyone Jewish that they can find.
Well, Israel will grant citizenship to any ethnic jew, right?
correct
Yeah Italy actually has a league so there are some. I think about half the team last time was Italian. There are a couple who have made it to the majors briefly, Colabello, Liddi. I think a couple play in Japan also
as opposed to virtually every other sport that also has a world cup
I hope Otani gets to pitch at Dodgers Stadium.
There is nothing stopping Japan in that side of the bracket if they don't choke. The other 6 best teams are in the other side.
Worst Korea, Netherlands and Israel could definitely meme their way into the semis, and from there it's just two more short games to try to meme themselves to the championship
do we stand a chance of winning again?
Yeah as I said all the good teams are on the other side, so they can certainly make the semifinals. And from there it really is anyone's game in a 1 game knockout in baseball.
But I also would not be surprised if they didn't make it out of their group with the gooks and jews
And italians as long as you have one grandparent. I know that one because a friend took that shit.
You don't even have to be a citizen, just qualify for it
