Paul Meyer, ugh
Today Paul Meyer fawns over Mike Edwards, who judging from the tone and phrases like "toiled incessently" and "battling the odds" that are repeated over and over again, may or may not have survived some kind of famine or genetic disease that affects professional athletes from Mechanicsburg. Despite this, it does not change the fact that he isn't very good at baseball and should not make the team.
Also, Meyer reports that the Pirates are considering starting the season with Oliver Perez as the 5th starter, seeing as how he's thrown a total of 35 pitches in game situations since March 1st. He is scheduled to start for Team Mexico today, which is good news for Team USA who needs a win to advance to the semis. Currently, everything involving Oliver Perez terrifies me. I want to see him pitch well today, but if he does there's probably some kind of slim chance that Mexico will advance in this tournament, which is not good for the Pirates (besides that, the WBC's been fantastic, anything that inspires this kind of passion is good for baseball and fun to watch).
