Team Puerto Rico is looking for redemption! Can't wait! 🇵🇷
Yesss team rubio 🇵🇷💪🏽
2nd in 2013, 2nd in 2017. Time to get the gold
Shout out from Brazil. Pretty excited for the WBC this year. Not a big follower of baseball, but I'm discovering this beautiful sport.
Rooting for the latin teams.
I will be attending in Miami and Can't wait! I went in both 2013 & 2017,. I am Dominican so I will be rooting for the DR.
That’s awesome. I love watching the Latin American countries playing each other. The atmosphere is electric.
I’m from Japan but grew up in San Diego. I’ll be cheering for Japan first but will be cheering for DR next with all the Padres star players on the team.
Hurt that we lost seiya, but Yamamoto and sasaki are unreal. With Sasaki already throwing 102 in one of the practice games and all 4 pitchers throwing some nasty balls, I really feel bad for the catchers. Murakami may have a big role, being the batter after Otani, if teams choose to walk Ohtani and face him instead. I also think Kondō will have a massive impact this tournament
Really excited for the tournament! A great video 👍
The way you said Lars Nootbaar sounded like you were surprised he was playing for them. I had no idea he was Japanese til it was announced he was playing with Japan.
Was just emphasizing, thought people might be surprised to hear his name
im hoping sasaki pitches a game in miami against a team like USA or DR. Id really want to attend that one in person
Would love to see that too but we’ll see right now he’s only slated to pitch once, first round matchup vs Czech but there is a chance he pitches in the championship game if Japan gets there
Forgot to mention that Murakami hit 55 HR in 2022. Dude is a monster.
56*. Put his entire 2022 stat line because the HR total doesn’t show the entirety of how great he was
Great coverage, love it when the player's name is on screen. Super stoked for the wbc, and baseball! Love your style man, sub'd.
Thank you!!!
Great video
The Japanese Pitching rotation is absolutely filthy stuff.
This a well made video ngl, great job
Appreciate it!
Great Video!!! Subbed!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed!
Great video! I'm torn between rooting for Ohtani and cheering for my European neighbours who made it into the tournament. I'd love for one of the European teams to at least make it to the next stage!
Where you from? I'd also love to see an underdog team from Europe advance as well, I think Netherlands has the the best shot!
@@bleacherboysmedia Germany, there's zero baseball here. I got hooked on koushien while I was studying in Japan. I'm rooting for Japan, but I gotta support all of my underdog neighbouring countries 😁
New sub!++
The WBC is so electric. Excited as hell.
I’m just hyped for some good baseball!
Excelente!
I love the author's take on Columbia at 90-1. I definitely will put a $10 spot on Columbia to win it all at my local casino. I also have a few shekels on the USA and Japan as well. Great Video!!! Well Done.
Thanks and good luck🍀!
it's so frustrating that the USA never takes this serious. they have the best pitchers in the world and have never had a top 5 pitcher compete in this. their lack of passion is pretty disgusting to me as a baseball fan lol
I agree but don't blame them for wanting to save their best guys for the MLB season.
I agree like we could make 2 rotations of guys not playing that are better than the one we’re sending
Teams have too much value to lose if a player has a bad performance or injured
If Cuba makes it to the semis I’ll be flying Sunday morning to Miami 😅! Have to go support my country with some MLB players taking part in the team for the first time ever. Don’t sleep on Cuba, we might not have the biggest names but these players are some dogs
Thats bec all your players defect at 1st opportunity
Im colombian and this tournament has made me want to watch more baseball. What went wrong for them this tournaemnet after starting strong against Mexico?
Netherlands is my sleeper team of the tournament!
Ooh I like that pick
Vamos Nicaragua 🇳🇮
Great preview! Love the implementation of the pitcher use limitations, it’ll be interesting to see how teams manage their pitching staffs accordingly. Really looking forward to watching Japan play, especially the “Monster of the Reiwa Era.”
Im Puertorican so obviously thats my team, but if not, Ill be rooting for Japan. Its exciting to witness their game its so much fun to watch.
Any idea where I can get an authentic Japan 2023 WBC Jersey?!? The video is a wonderful breakdown btw!
Thanks! Unfortunately everything’s out of stock on all the websites that were selling authentic jerseys. Id keep an eye out for a restock
Freddie pulled his hammy
Good things for you you’re a Team Japan Guy. Boy are the ever JUGGERNAUT. Good Lord they are crushing it already.
Bih we on top😈😈🥵😤🇩🇴
Team U.S.A has Ken Griffey Jr as the Best hitting coach ever!
Team USA coaching staff is insane lol. Jerry Manuel as the bench coach, Brian McCann hitting coach, Andy Pettitte pitching coach and Dave Righetti the bullpen coach!
I can't wait for Venezuela 🇻🇪
In my opinion DR has the most stacked team
Wow he didn’t talk about Puerto Rico🤦🏽♂️ we went undefeated to the final last tournament.
I actually think their the most fun team to watch this tournament. Just didn’t have time to speak on all the teams so went with the top 3 ranked teams. Wish Puerto Rico the best of luck!
USA seems to be a favorite. Even over DR. But I haven't been paying attention to baseball as much.
I guess the biggest question is their pitching staff.
small baseball sushi man😂
I love baseball
USA!!!
Anyone know where where to watch it for freee
USA v Mexico!!
These games only take place during the spring traning ? and for how long. I found out about this concept now in march. I am kind of confuse.
Once Every three years. The tournament is like 2 weeks long altogether.
@@donkeysaurusrex7881 so they play while spring training is going on ? Thats what I see. If it is like this, I think it should be seperate frist the clasic and then spring training
Donkeysaurus, I know the major leages are intergrated , but I think not enough, like for it to have a title like the World Series , as I was wachting the WC, the teams carrying the name of a country they are also intergrated, in this case I think there should be a more sacrate commitment the keep the teams with native personal, l just see it more realisticly.
Ngl I can’t wait for USA vs Great Britain, hope we absolutely stomp them tbh
Looking at the rosters if that’s not how it goes I’ll be shocked lol
You should do a recap of the tournament so far before the final or even semis
Yo soy Boricua...so obv Team PR. But I also have grandparents from both Cuba and Dominican Republic. So basically if PR can't win I will root for any of the Carribean teams left
Gotta go for my Koreans. That final against Japan still haunts me
Respect the pick! We’ve had some insane battles and that’s sure to continue!
I feel like Korea is the great unknown in the tourney. I haven’t seen them play against international competition as much but I know many like myself watched the KBO when it was the first baseball back a few years ago! Those guys can play and extremely fun to watch with the passion they bring!
Japan haunts us Taiwanese still too. That 2013 game where they came back in the 9th still haunts me in my sleep
Despite a lack of big names for this years tournament, their level of baseball is high and always field a very competitive team. Double play combo of Tommy Edman and Ha-Seong Kim up the middle is gonna be so fun to watch!
That was one insane game, I still watch those highlights from time to time. Excited to see what this tournament holds for Taiwan!
I can only hope MX make it out of their pool into some contention
I know you didn’t say that Kyle Higashioka is an all-star caliber catcher 😂
Great video though. Thanks!
Thanks! Lmao you’re the first one to catch that😂
@@bleacherboysmedia I’m a Yankees fan (obviously lol), so I know Higgy well 😜
Lets go DRRRR🇩🇴🇩🇴
As a Canadian I say your giving us to much credit we can hit but are pitching for the most part is at Best questionable
Me voy con mi equipo Nicaragua! 🇳🇮
🇩🇴💪🏻
let's go 🇨🇺 cubaaa yes we can
USA USA USA 🥇🇺🇲🏆⚾
GO TEAM KOREA
I’m about to put 500 dollars on Colombia to win the whole thing. Let’s goooo
Ayy let’s go! Best of luck to you and Colombia but I can’t take responsibility of that doesn’t hit lol
I got Venezuela
USA and GB is a World cup rematch
We’ll get a winner this time
USA USA
let’s go puerto rico 🇵🇷
Watch out for Israel aka USA team 2
Hope they can surprise some people!
🇵🇷⚾
You forgot Venezuela... ok, no problem!! My countrymen are gonna be champs!! #arepapower
Didn’t forget, just didn’t have the time to talk about all 20 teams so I only did the top 3 teams and one sleeper team. Best of luck to Venezuela!
Bruh, you said "doodies" and you know it
You seriously said colombia And didn’t even mention Venezuela … ? alright
Why does the MLB worry about injury? The WBC teams should worry about their players being injured in the MLB
They always underestimate Puerto Rico😴🇵🇷 Two back to back 2nd places
TOLD Y’ALL🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Bruh the disrespect to Puerto Rico is really insane 🤦♂️
Meant no disrespect to Puerto Rico, I actually think their the most fun team to watch this tournament. Just didn’t have time to speak on all the teams so went with the top 3 ranked teams. Wish Puerto Rico the best of luck!
It's just a all around the world thing.
Politics, Law Enforcement, Education, College, UA-cam, Society In General Even in WBC. Highly suggest you get a lot of your gentes stop being " ".
Why the USA doesn’t bring the best? Players like mr 62hr Judge or DeGrom ++ etc? ….Clearly usa can have two teams and beyond. Also japan should play on this side of the ocean. Tooo easy for them over there with those teams that are a joke and without baseball tradition - except cuba or Korea - both so bad.
ALLWAYS UNDERESTIMATING PUERTO RICO🤷🏻♂️🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
Imagine taking that Yankees bum when they could of took Danny Jansen
Sure there are a bunch of other better catchers like d’Arnaud but this is the 3rd string catcher we’re talking about lol. Good catchers would rather stay with their teams and learn the new rules and catch their own pitchers for reps instead of sitting on the bench at the WBC mid spring training
@@bleacherboysmedia I know I just hate Yankees 😂
This video didn't age well
Mexico!! Let’s go, but Cuba too boy. Cuba cojones!!
