Oddly, I think that was Canada's plan as well actually. They threw a 19 year old kid in A ball out to get destroyed tonight (knowing they'd likely lose no matter who they pitched) instead of their more experienced pitchers because their games the next two days against Colombia/Mexico will decide whether they advance or not. If they get mercy'd, they get to pitch less innings and therefore save more guys for the next two days. Weird format.
