Many Mets

Is it me or does like every team in the baseball classic have a Met on it? I don't know who to root for.

Let me see here.

• David Wright & godsend J.J Putz are gonna represent USA
• Jose Reyes is the lone Met amongst the Dominican Republic
  
• Beltran, Delgado, Figueroa, Jesus Feliciano, Pedro Feliciano & Alex Cora are all playing for the Puerto Rican team
• Francisco Rodriguez will hone his closing skills for Venezuela, only briefly
  
• Oliver Perez & Elmer Dessens are on Team Mexico
• some dude named Ruben Tejada will play for Panama
• down under & around the horn, Stefan Welch
  
• and Shawn Bowman? is playing for Canada?

And that's not including Johan Santana, who pulled out for Venezuela & even tho he's not a Met anymore, Pedro Martinez will be pitching for the Dominican Republic. I think the Mets have the most players going to the Classic this year........................................

Yes. I did the math. The Mets have 15 (not including Martinez) playing in the WBC, followed closely by the Red Sox who have 14, and both the Twins & Mariners who each have 12, one Mariner being ex-Met great Endy Chavez.

Makes you wonder, if all these Mets are the greatest even when choosing from an entire country, why have the last two seasons been such a nightmare? Maybe it's a bad thing their all going. Maybe they should just stay at spring training and work at some more of that small ball.

Hmm. I've decided not to root for anyone and just enjoy. Yay baseball!
