Burgermeister and Song on the squad...

World Baseball Classic: United States: Team - USA

Scutaro, Mijares, Sandoval on Venezuela roster, Javier Lopez part of Puerto Rico's unit, Romo on Mexico's squad, Casilla on Dominican Republic's uh... company.


So the Giants have 6 pitchers in the WBC, this bodes well for Hembree and lil-Bochy as they will get a long look each.

Long season, long post season, short off season, now the entire bull pen playing "meaningful" games right away.

Not sure I like that. Good thing we have a lot of young arms who look to be almost ready for the show (as you said).

I dunno...I think the Giants are probably the best at managing arms; I'd expect that we would adjust ST accordingly so that the bullpen throws the same amount as they would in a non WBC year. It will mean more opportunity for the minor league relievers, though. Win/win?
