      I don't think you'll ever get the biggest of American pitchers because of the money that's sunk into them and the care with which teams get them ready for the season, but you could definitely get the best hitters and fielders and a good set of #2 pitchers.

      @@billhicks808 I see your point. I hope that changes though. If their innings are managed it could be a much more realistic preparation than spring training ever could be. Maybe perceptions will change. A pitcher can get injured at any point and sometimes being too careful makes injuries more likely. For instance, back in the day the expectation was that pitchers would try to pitch complete games every time they took the mound.

The Japanese pitchers are amazing. I don't know if you have seen their games but they should all be in MLB. Most of them throw mid to upper 90s with great control and nasty breaking balls. I think they'll beat Mexico, which will make the Championship game even better since Ohtani will pitch.

      No. Kuriyama announced Sasaki pitch against Mexico as a starter and maybe Yamamoto will be the second. At final game Darvish will start and Shohei commented yesterday he's probable to pitch not as starter but the second/reliever. Well Samurai Japan must beat Mexico first.

    • @wilburwood8261
      @wilburwood8261 Рік тому +1

      Yamamoto is only 5-10. That is extremely short for a starting pitcher. Only Cueto (5-10), Lincecum (5-11) are equally as short as him, as a all-star level starting pitcher. If he succeeds, he would be the shortest in the game.
      That means, his margin for error is very slim, thus Yamamoto's chances of dominating in MLB is very very small.
      Sasaki would be a much much better MLB prospect.
