1-8 Morning WBC News: Fuentes, Byun-Hyun Kim, etc.

(Link: Brian Fuentes article)

Despite being a new member of the Angels, Brian Fuentes has accepted a invite for Team USA. I wouldn’t be shocked if this were to change.

Byung-Hyun Kim is looking to recover his form in the WBC.

Finally, Charlie Montoyo will be a coach for Puerto Rico.

Several top position players have committed, including Kevin Youkilis and Dustin Pedroia of the Red Sox, Chipper Jones of the Braves, Ryan Braun of the Brewers, Derek Jeter of the Yankees, David Wright of the Mets, Grady Sizemore of the Indians and Mark DeRosa of the Phillies.
Who's on third?

Wright. That list, respectively: 1B, 2B, DH, LF, SS, 3B, CF, UT/PH or I guess RF if nobody better comes along. What happened to Upton?

Mark DeRosa is on the Phillies now? Did I miss a transaction?

Byung-Hyun Kim got hurt in the last WBC and missed the first month of the season.

Pay attention, Mark DeRosa went to the Phillies in the deal that brought Peavy to the Cubs.
