Two changes to WBC roster for the USA
2006-03-01 11:58
by Bob Timmermann

Billy Wagner and C.C. Sabathia have dropped off the WBC roster for the U.S. and have been replaced by Gary Majewski and, for reasons best known to Buck Martinez, Al Leiter.

Al Leiter? Don't they know there are pitch limits? Leiter can throw 65 pitches to get out of one inning.

Will Wagner and Sabathia still be awarded a cap for being on the roster for a full international?

Possible reality TV spoiler alert:

Won't the WBC interfere with Leiter's TV obligations, or has he already finished "Dancing With The Stars"?

Having Al Leiter on the U.S. team makes me want to root for some other country now.

I think South Africa needs my support!

South Africa will get my support if they call their team the Springboks.

Likewise, Australia will get my support if they call their team the Wallabies.

Al Leiter is the only MLB player who has ever been in my house. That I know of.

And grandcosmo has been in my house, ergo Al Leiter has been in my house.

I think there's a logical fallacy in there somewhere.
