Yeah, that's a good point by Kruk. WTF is Carlos Guillen doing playing first base? Put him at DH and have Papi play 1B or whatever.

BTW, these uniforms would make you think it's a game between the Texas Rangers and Washington Nationals.

**MarinersFan87** · 03-07-2006 02:39 PM

Man, these guys have great discipline at the plate.

**DirtyKash** · 03-07-2006 02:39 PM

Shocker. Soriano strikes out to end the top of the 2nd. Tough inning for Santana there.

The uni's are questionable, but Japan has some sweet looking helmets.

Our worst matchup is against the USA, so we should use our worst pitcher there (Adam Loewen).

Then in our make-it-or-break-it game against Mexico, a must win, we should have our best pitcher go (Erik Bedard).

Instead, it looks like it's going to be:

Bedard vs SA
Francis vs USA
Loewen vs Mex

ghey

Canada looking ahead to round 2 and wants Erik Berard to be ready to pitch then

Hah, that graphic by ESPN says "Minessota Twins". Haha.

That's stupid. You can't look forward to round 2 if you're not out of round 1. Mexico's pretty stacked.

Remind me to draft Magglio Ordonez in my baseball draft. This guy is awesome, I like what I see. Full count and took the ball the opposite way.

**DirtyKash** · 03-07-2006 02:50 PM

Damn, that's a sick changeup. Victor Martinez was way ahead of that. Colon strikes him out.

**MarinersFan87** · 03-07-2006 02:50 PM

Imagine if the Venezuelans were able to trot Santana, Felix, and Zambrano out there with Garcia, Escobar, Chacin, K-Rod and others to use out of the pen. Woohoo for the Mariners blocking Felix!

**DirtyKash** · 03-07-2006 02:53 PM

Santana = sick.

**MarinersFan87** · 03-07-2006 02:53 PM

Such discipline displayed by Tejada there!

**DirtyKash** · 03-07-2006 02:54 PM

Nice job by Pujols to draw the walk. That's a pitch that Tejada would have swung at, for sure.

**MarinersFan87** · 03-07-2006 02:55 PM

I wish every game was this exciting, the WBC would be godly.
