I think we may see teams add clauses to protect against this in the future. Injuries do happen, but if you're going to get injured to the point where you can't perform your job, then you should be getting injured on company time. MLB has sure spent a lot of time promoting the international game and this tournament for it not to be on "company time". And hey who runs this tournament? That's right. MLB. Come on. So are MLB teams going to have their players blocked from playing in a MLB tournament? Destroy their own product? Seems unlikely. And besides how many WBCs have their been? And how many injuries have occurred in the games themselves? Edited March 20, 20232 yr by Valmy77
March 20, 20232 yr That 102 fb with that low 90’s splitter and slider gotta be hard to see, I think the Mets signed the wrong Japanese pitcher.

March 21, 20232 yr Well maybe he’s not that unhittable. Fuck yeah.Think maybe he got a little too brave with that velocity

March 21, 20232 yr That was an interesting sequence by Urquidy. nibble on the edges (and not be all that close) to Nootbaar , and then groove 93 first pitch fastball down the middle. coming off the mound he knew he got away with one and he sure as hell did. Edited March 21, 20232 yr by UTexasFight

March 21, 20232 yr Author Ohtani showed more passion on that double than he has in all his years with the angels combined.

I think Fox will be plenty happy if Mexico is in the championship game. Edited March 21, 20232 yr by TonyTexas
