ZONER’S TOP 6 REASONS TO WATCH THE WBC

0

Fox Sports has a post up with their reasons to watch the World Baseball Classic. It’s a decent list, but I remain unmoved. Which isn’t to say I won’t watch, because I’ll check out a little bit. But it has the ability to ruin the upcoming season, so I just can’t get into it full-throttle.

I honestly don’t see the point of the whole thing on a competitive level. It’s not like each country has all their best players going for them. There are definitely some prospects I would like to see, but other than that I’m just hoping guys don’t get hurt. That said, here are my top 6 reasons to watch.

  1. See Stubby Clapp play again and reminisce about making fun of Cardinals fans at Wrigley. Good times.
  2. Hear the P.A. guy announce names like Yang Yang, Chunhua Dong, Dirk van’t Klooster. Vroom-vroom Party Starter!!
  3. Guess how old each Cuban player really is, and which ones will defect and end up on the White Sox.
  4. See how much Randall Simon and Sidney Ponson weigh these days.
  5. 2 words: Augie. Ojeda.
  6. Laugh at your favorite team when they lose one of their best players to injury.
