Baseball Primer Newsblog— The Best News Links from the Baseball Newsstand
Monday, January 05, 2009
Taiwan, aiming at advancing to the top eight in the 2009 World Baseball Classic, on Monday announced the preliminary selection of players for the tournament. The Chinese-Taipei Professional Baseball League announced the names of 48 players, including 11 who are playing for US teams and six playing for Japanese teams.
That’s from the main link for this edition of WBC news, so click above to see the whole article.
Joe Nixon over at Bleacher Report has a Asian Baseball Power Ranking: Not surprisingly, the 4 WBC contestant countries are the top 4. The highest non-WBC country in Asia is, apparently, Thailand. See you in 2013!
Finally, some news on Corey Koskie, recovering from that nasty concussion a few years ago, who is hoping to work out with the Twins at Spring Training this spring and maybe play for Canada. Hit his name for the article.
