I wouldnt call 13 walks and 2 HBPs competently played

That's too competently played compared to the chaos of 13 runs, or 13 home runs, or 13 errors.

Good news for Taiwan is that Team Israel's pitchers are not exactly a bunch of high-control guys.

I don't remember Taipei having hitters in the previous WBC. Maybe a hitter, but that's it.

Did Leyland just forget Goldschmidt is on his team or something?

Maybe he thinks Goldschmidt is a defensive replacement.

I mean he seems to think Stanton, Crawford, and Posey belong at the bottom of the order...

I can't believe he's leaving Arenado in clean up.

If he were batting against the Giants he'd have like 50 RBIs already.

Leyland is being pressured by Big Colorado. They're probably withholding his diabetes medicine unless Arenado plays. What do you expect him to do?!
