Failed steroids tests don't matter here I guess?







Looking at Tatis and thinking he is still on the suspended list.

Yeah, taking another look that line up roster isn't right. Tatis not listed on BA's DR roster, and Montas isn't pitching for anyone until May or June.


BA's official roster is here:

2023 Dominican Republic World Baseball Classic Roster — College Baseball, MLB Draft, Prospects - Baseball America

Team Dominican Republic has put together a 30-man roster that may rival the one that won the 2013 World Baseball Classic.

The Dutch team is really well coached and has a lot of talent.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

love our lineup

rotation not so much

Decent bullpen arms

Odd they were able to get so many offensive guys to go and few pitchers. Guess more risk of injury idk

Singer was killing it last year at least.

Did Great Britain find some old "Iron-On" decals for their jerseys?

Not even 9 year old little league kids going to Dairy Queen look that shabby.
