Is this tournament being played at the same time as spring ball? If so thats just dumb. Baseball sucks anyway.

You suck.

Just imagine if Canada had a bullpen with guys who were playing higher than AA ball... Or if our good pitchers ever decided to come out (Harden, Dempster, I'm talking to you!)

Some clutch performances by some young guys. It was the older veteran journeymen that gave up the runs.

Um, Harden's arm is being held together with a few toothpicks and some duct tape right now.

God damn you for not representing your country this year, Fergie Jenkins! God damn you.

I'm really glad he isn't a Met right now (I'm a Braves fan).

Meh, he's always hurt and he still manages a 2.00 ERA somehow.

He had movement that reminded me of his first few years in Boston.

Part of me just wants the Cubs to bench him until October.

He's Canadian; he should have watched enough Red/Green to know duct tape holds everything together :P

Let's answer these all important questions one at a time for the simpletons who can't seem to understand the concept of how the world works

1) Yes. Spring training started about three weeks ago. So this tournament is being played at the same time as spring ball. It does kind of suck. Especially if you're at spring training to watch your favorite players and they are away.

2) Baseball is a game that moves at it's own pace. It's difficult for the humans who have no real ability to pick up the nuances of this great game. It takes a great deal of intelligence and savvy to understand how baseball works. These are two qualities that you obviously lack. Therefore, you lash out at a game that escapes your bottom of the barrel IQ.

Perhaps the World Hotdog Eating Championships are more your style?

Picking up Schilling would be nice because we could skip several of Hardens starts throughout the season..

having peavy would be even nicer
