Who's idea was it to start the World Baseball Classic?
Did the owners want it or was it purely a ploy to get the whole world involved in baseball and make it a "World Series"? The owners must be out of their minds to let a multi million dollar player have a chance of getting hurt before the regular season starts!
To Mr "COOLIO", I did take some math and economics,dude! Let's see,I pay Derek Jeter 40 million a year,he get's hurt and misses the whole season,I get paid maybe 10 million to let him play-I'd say that's not TOO good for my Yankee team (that misses the playoffs also)-yeah!--your a pretty good business man,dude!
