With the number four pick in the baseball is in play test EWBC draft, I will be selecting the reigning, defending...

Team Japan.

I don't think the roster is as good as it was the last go around.

That being said, I mean, it's still an incredible team.

They still have Shohei Otani.

Ito is back.

Kikuchi, Sagano, Takahashi, Yamamoto.

I believe I saw that Amai was waiting until they advanced and then he might join Team Japan afterward.

I believe I saw that.

um that's cheating i know but then i mean offensively they're running back the core of that lineup really otani suzuki yoshida okamoto murakami and kondo so they've been there done that it's still a really really good team i don't know if they're as good as the last go-round but i mean reigning defending champs with a good chunk of the team coming back how can you not

All right.

So now we're at the spot where I feel like you got to play the odds a little bit.

For my next pick, I am taking the watered down Puerto Rico team.

It's risky because obviously they are not the team they were a couple of years ago.

Guys were not picked up by insurance.

Some guys were

Not available, whatever it may be.

It's still not a bad team.

Team Puerto Rico, this go-around.

The pitching is actually still fairly good.
