Well it is good baseball, if you like pitching.
Here is my take on the comments:
USA batters: Its too early in the season and we haven't gotten our swing down yet...?? Say what?
Bottome line is the USA hitters were handcuffed by "good pitching". The pitchers that MLB puts out nightly are simply okay by the worlds standards now. That's why you have so many hitters batting 300+ that simply aren't that good come playoffs etc.,
And from ESPN - after the USA lost - "it seems that the rest of the world is finally catching up with the USA."
Say what? They've caught up and are passing the USA.
Maybe the MLB execs could look for their next draft picks in Japan or maybe Korea?
Thanks
