But he also could next pitch for Team USA in the WBC. And fortunately Team Italy (and Mike Piazza) isn't in the same pool as the US. Italy is in the Orlando pool, while the U.S. is in the Arizona pool. I really think these pools need better names than A, B, C, and D. I can't even figure out which one is the "Group of Death".
I think Pool B (USA, Canada, Mexico, South Africa) is the Group of Death. Canada and Mexico should both be pretty good teams.
In contrast, it seems like the other pools each have two good teams (Japan and Korea, Puerto Rico and Cuba, and DR and Venezuela) and two not-so-good teams (Taiwan and China, Panama and Netherlands, and Australia and Italy).
