I was wondering when someone would pick up the defending champions.

And the Dominican Republic, who I think will win the real thing this year, is still open.

[blacky44]

I will take Dominican republic and will get my team ready soon.

cant get my team together. So i must drop.

[AmphibiousRodent]

You still have time. Three teams left.

[General Mojo]

We would like to represent the Dominican Republic in this fancy tournament.



Playing the role of the mythical figure that is Vladimir Guerrero, we have General Mojo....


Playing the role of David Ortiz, and in charge of all of our clutch rolling, we have Solidorange7....


Playing the role of Bartolo Colon, the fat worthless veteran we all know and love, we have mcapizzi....


And last, and CERTAINLY least, coming out of retirement...in the role of Jose "its LIMA time!" please welcome Stoggieman!



Now lets play ball!

[SolidOrange7]

En primer lugar, nos gustaría saber que Jpeter desertado de la República Dominicana para unirse al equipo de Estados Unidos en este torneo. Esto es exactamente la controversia que vimos con Alex Rodriguez en el WBC - es que en representación de América? Es que representan a la República Dominicana?

A pesar de todo, vamos a tirar de él durante el juego.

En segundo lugar, por favor, reconoce que "DRS" ahora significa "Sociedad de la República Dominicana."

First of all, we would like it known that Jpeter defected from the Dominican Republic to join the United States team in this tournament. This is exactly the controversy we saw with Alex Rodriguez in the WBC-- is he representing America? Is he representing the Dominican Republic?

Regardless, we will be throwing at him during the game.

Secondly, please recognize that "DRS" now stands for "Dominican Republic Society."

[AmphibiousRodent]

Ooh, this just got interesting. Do I smell a bench-clearing brawl in the near future?

Updated, and Chinese Taipei is taken as well. Who wants Puerto Rico?

[GUSSELL]

I will take Puerto Rico

We are now full, but reserve teams are always welcome to sign up. The following players expressed interest in the tournament, but weren't on a team, and should be considered if any teams have a player drop.

[AmphibiousRodent]

I have you first in line, magneto.

The first set of games has been sent out.
PLAY BALL!

[nagerous]

ga7 is away this weekend and will join the game when hes back sunday evening.

[AmphibiousRodent]

The following players have not yet joined their first-set games:

Chinese Taipei: Nooley
Netherlands: fishydance
Puerto Rico: Xaphan

Since Monday is my craziest day at work, I will give these players until Noon my time (Pacific) Tuesday before I start calling in reserves. Good luck everybody.

[Blitzaholic]

ga7 is away this weekend and will join the game when hes back sunday evening.

he needs to join 5 games in one of my tourneys as well, he way late

[UselessTriviaMan]

The Puerto Rican team has a substitution - dreamchaser will be pinch-hitting for Xaphan.

[AmphibiousRodent]

Noted. Dreamchaser is now your permanent team member. That is your one substitution.
