Do You Like Baseball or Do You Not?

I have a simple question for you, the public, do you or do you not like baseball? It's a pretty simple yes or no question. If you do, than you should like the World Baseball Classic. If you don't than you shouldn't. It's really as simple as that.

Instead of wasting time watching meaningless spring training games that absolutely nobody cares about, you get to watch games in March with all stars playing 9 innings. You get to watch has beens like Ruben Rivera, Randall Simon, and my boy Ramiro Mendoza play for the first time in forever. I watched multiple games so far this weekend. I watched the Pontoon somehow hold the Dominican Republic to 1 run and pull off a shocking win. I watched the US vs. Canada play a highly entertaining game. I watched my boy Ramiro give up 5 runs and nighty night.

I understand the people complaining about all the pitching rules and the limits, but my answer to that is stop god damn whining. Do you like baseball or do you not like baseball? There's not other time to play this thing. None zero. It's the only time that works, so stop bitching about it. And ya some of the rules are dumb, especially the rule that had Japan (2-0) play Korea (2-1) for the #1 seed in Asia (that makes zero sense) but again its simple do you like baseball or not. This is hands down more entertaining than spring training, who cares if a lot of premium talent pulled out and it isn't the best it could be. It's better than nothing.

Numbers On Steroids: Bret Boone

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. Mr. Boone was once the best power hitting second baseman in the league. How questionable was his success? Averages Say: Why the extra plateu in his mid 30s? At Bats Per Home Run Says: Lowest at Bats Per Home Runs at 37? Hmm.... Explaining It Away Yeak, this one is tough. Umm, late bloomer? He showed potential power early in his career and he just liked playing in Seattle a lot more than everywhere else? And umm, his career was kind of like a running backs in that it just all of a sudden fell off the map? Any of these convincing you? The Verdict Guy never hits more than 24 home runs in a season and then in his age 32 season he hits 37? And in SafeCo a pitchers park to boot? And he follows that up with 24, 35, 24 homer years still at SafeCo? And then he completely falls off the map in 2005 never to be heard from again? We've got a Screamer... Man Get Big Muscles In 30s. Hm...
