did all the good USA pitchers decline invites? this pitching is garbage while the lineup is stacked

Like the US couldn't get 2 or 3 of these guys to pitch?


Cole
Burns
Nola
Degrom
Cease
Woodruff
Wheeler
Gallen
Rodon
Manoah
Gausman
Musgrove
Ray
Strider
Webb

thats all they needed for real, 2 of those guys. shyt, even just adding someone like Burns/Cease would elevate this team so much, having a true go to ace

that staff is looking rough - they basically got everyone that could have wanted for the lineup too, its weird they couldnt land a quality SP

Replace manager for USA
Start accepting straight outta college players or top level American minor leaguers in the lineup, these entitled pampered millionare atheletes aren't proud to represent their nation and don't know what it means to be real Americans :mjpls:

No but for if certain players(pitchers mainly)are going to treat this as warm up/spring training in regards to innings get hungry kids straight outta of college fukk all that

Since the first WBC in 2006, the USA has made it a thing for players to not bother participating.
It's been the cool thing to do. They should be walking this tournament just off pitching alone.

Finally a hit with RISP

@Brozay i might have to invest in the Sox rebounding offensively
Eloy can be one of the best overall hitters in the league tbh, he’s not a one trick power pony. We just need Eloy Yoan Luis and Tim to stay healthy for a full season. The lineup should do damage especially adding Benitendi and Vaughn progressing another year
