Here is a list of New York Mets players.
Jose Reyes
Carlos Delgado
Carlos Beltran
Alex Cora
Other players on this list are K-Rod, Putz, and Oliver Perez.
What is this list?
It’s many of the Mets who played in the WBC.
I can sense people getting mad right now that I’m throwing this out there – but with all the talk of lack of fundamentals and now a curious list of injuries – maybe it’s not a great idea to let 16 players out of your sights in March. Just sayin’
Quick – who won the 2009 WBC?

Excellent point…to a point. Even though the correlation isn’t 1-1, a strong argument can be made that championships should be played at the *end* of the season.
It’s been said before… let them play the WBC in the winter leagues. Then they can recover before the season.
Japan. I win?
I agree with your point, but to play Wilpon’s advocate, who won their divisions the last time there was a WBC (before 2009)?
