1. we have genuinely an incredible rotation this time around

2. Holy fuck it just keeps going

3. Thrilled to finally be able to cheer for Logan Webb.

4. When Logan Webb is your team’s clear 3rd starter.. watch out, world.

5. NL strikeout king Logan Webb?

6. The dam for quality pitchers signing up has definitely been broken

7. 3 of the 4 top American starting pitchers by fWAR last season are now committed to team USA. Almost as good a rotation as we could possibly ask for.

8. I’m so glad that we’re out of the days of having to rely on Lance Lynn and Kyle Freeland to give us huge innings on the mound

9. The DR NEEDS to respond, this is a CODE RED situation, I repeat

   CODE RED

   DEFCON 1

10. Glad to see Jesse Plemons doing side work moonlighting for Team USA

11. USA is cooking

12. Going from Kyle Freeland, Miles Mikolas and Lance Lynn to Paul Skenes, Tarik Skubal and Logan Webb. I am in heaven

13. The pitching lineup yesterday vs today is an insane difference, they have the damn dream team now

14. 

15. Is this team USA the most stacked baseball team ever?

16. I’m more excited for WBC than regular season LFG

17. That’s huge!

18. Some construction worker who’s a part time baseball player from Brazil is going to have to face Skenes, Skubal, or Webb in the group stage.

    Sounds fair.

19. Damn USA were really dissatisfied on silver in 2023.

    Going all in 💪

20. Everything is coming together. That rotation…. Holy cannoli.

21. This rotation sidearms

22. USA baseball saw the complaints about the staff after Skenes and Ryan yesterday lol

23. TEAM USA ROTATION:

    * Paul Skenes
    * Tarik Skubal
    * Logan Webb
    * Joe Ryan
    * Nolan McLean
    * Matthew Boyd

    

24. That DR lineup vs our pitching is must see TV.

25. USA took the last WBC personal. As a Dominican this whole USA squad is fucking STACKED

26. This is getting insane. We actually have pitching this time around.

27. 

28. What happens if you’re a very good but not elite USA pitcher, and you commit early, and they put up a post for you, and then all these elite guys join. and there’s no room for you? Do you quietly lose your spot?

29. This might be the most disgusting pitching staff ever assembled lol

30. This pitching staff is insane

31. I feel bad for pitchers like Lynn and Freeland. You volunteer to pitch for Team USA when nobody else wants to, and next time around, all you hear is how people are glad they don’t have pitchers of your caliber this time.

32. Guess I picked a good year to start following the WBC, this team is insane

33. Almost makes one wish the WBC final was a 7 game affair. It’d be the true World Series 

34. Important to note: There are pitch count limits in the WBC, so you have to use quite a few pitchers.

    In a way, it’s too bad. It would have been funny to see USA’s incredible staff up against Yoshinobu Yamamoto pitching every inning of every game.

35. FTG….I mean USA USA USA!!

36. Skenes, Skubal, Webb, Ryan is fantastic 1-4 rotation. Let’s get it boys! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

37. WHAT THE FUCK IS A KILOMETER RAAAAAA

38. The USA has a very good team and just like every other WBC they get home field advantage throughout the tournament.  If they don’t win it’s a major upset and I don’t want to hear any lame excuses.

    Btw even though this is an MLB project, Japan should be allowed to host the finals one year.  USA always playing at home and not dealing with the long travel/jet lag is an unneeded advantage for the team that *should* be the strongest in the every tournament.

39. This rotation is looking to be unstoppable.

40. We have the dream team now and I still haven’t heard a single thing about this tournament outside of baseball circles. MLB should be spending all their promotional budget and then some on this, especially after how great the last WBC was and also how great this October was, keep the momentum going. I’ve been seeing ads and promos for the World Cup and the Winter Olympics for months, c’mon MLB get your shit together for once.

41. Thank God for these guys being the most competitive people on the planet. I’m sure they all want to be Captain America and we all get to see them try for it
