Come anticipate the World Baseball Classic with me

the 'who HAVE BASEBALLS BEATING IN THEIR CHESTS' line made me lol, but poz's thesis of YOU'RE EITHER A DUNN GUY OR A BLOOMQUIST GUY is bs

Yeah, but those guys as two extremes makes some sense to me. It's hard not get the impression that Adam Dunn (who I actually quite like) doesn't try terribly hard. </JP Ricciardi>

damn. canadian starters be dropping like flies!

thermo when you said canadians were dropping like flies, was it out that jeff francis is out for the season? there will be no upset of the us this year!! i hope so though (c'mon STUBBY CLAPP!)

Out w/ Sizemore (groin pull), in w/ Victorino

"I'd love to have [Granderson's] speed at the top of the lineup," Johnson said, "but I've got a guy named Jimmy Rollins who's pretty good in that spot."

The worst on-base hitter on the roster -- very smart.

Moises Alou is the Dominican captain; hope he makes it to the second inning.

China-Japan at 4:30 ET tomw morning on ESPN2. I might be able to get up at 6...

Yuuuu

turned it on as soon as he'd left :(

46 pitches in four innings, no hits.

Way to go, team guy Putz (Team USA exhibition vs Blue Jays): (BS, 1)(L, 0-1) 0.2 3 3 3 2 1 0 40.50

ha hahhaa!

Ponson

vs

Volquez

hm

DR's looking rough.

Phillips has just pointed out that, down three runs, the DR has now been backed into the "we need to try" mode.

can't wait - Can/US in two hours! :D

Dutch win! Pedro 3 scoreless

ponson just got himself a job this year

The Canada vs. US game was a gem!

ya, just got home from it.
amazing game. too bad amazingly close losses don't count for anything.

Sutcliffe with a gem after Rollins made that play in the ninth. "Rollins won it in 2007 and 2008 -- just give it to him for 2009... ... THAT'S WHY THE METS GO HOME EVERY YEAR."

Pudge is having a pretty good night.

i know it was so they could set up some force outs and stuff but i had a good lol @ bernie williams being intentionally walked

honkbal > beisbol

hadda leave TV in third inning

Someone plz take Sutcliffe to the pound already.

lol Willy Taveras getting CS at third to sink DR

Also LOL at Jason Grilli.

Looks like Bobby Abreu followed Edgar Renteria's '07/'08 offseason workout regimen.

yhis is on ESPNRadio? fuck Fuckcliffe.

JESUS SHUT UP ABOUT THE ROLLINS PLAY GODDAMN SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP

they didnt even show this Rollins play on the highlights, I havent seen it.

JETER FACE INTO SEATS, NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKIN ABOUT

Rick Suckcliffe

Has Ricciardi seen what that undesirable Dunn has been doing in his house? Two home runs, four walks, five RUNS, .750/.875/2.250, plus that take-out slide against Canada?

Korea-Japan was great, what I beheld in my breakfast haze. Saw YU throw about 3 pitches.

Andy - i've been seeing it first-hand and believe you me JP will be hearing about it next time i bump into him at a Timmies!

looking forward to the Italy/Can game today. should be fun!
and hopefully a Can/Ven game tomorrow - that should be a good match up.

FERNANDO in Mexican dugout! doesn't look any plumper.

Wow that Korea/Japan game looks like it was quite the pitcher's duel.

i'm watching it rn, it's pretty nuts. anyone know who the American broadcaster is, he played in Japan for a long time?

btw the bumper music when they go to commercial is fuckin koto music or something - it's kinda o_0

it's Oreste Destrade
