‘Strongest’ US WBC national team, starting pitcher ‘Eboldi-Lynn’ joins

The hill of the US World Baseball Classic (WBC) national team, which is aiming for the championship, is getting stronger. Nathan Eboldi (32) and Lance Lynn (35) join.

MLB.com, the official homepage of Major League Baseball, announced on the 15th (Korean time) that right-handed starting pitchers Eboldi and Lynn will be participating in the WBC as members of the U.S. national team.

Previously, the US WBC team had joined Adam Wainwright, Nestor Cortes, Logan Webb, Merrill Kelly and Miles Michaels. Adding Eboldi and Rin to this.

Eboldi, in his 11th year in the major leagues, went 6-3 with a 3.87 ERA in 109 1/3 innings in 20 games last season. 토토

In addition, Lin, also in his 11th year in the major leagues, threw 121 2/3 innings in 21 games last season, recording an 8-7 record with a 3.99 ERA.

Of course, compared to Yasujin, the name is still not enough. Mike Trout, Paul Goldschmidt, and Mookie Betts are on the field lineup.

Unlike the MVP-level field team, Cy Young-level pitchers have yet to express their intention to participate. This seems to be due to the difference between fielders and pitchers.

In order for the mound to show the same level as the field staff, Jacob deGrom, Justin Verlander, and Max Scherzer must show their willingness to participate.

The USA defeated Puerto Rico at the 2017 WBC to win the tournament. They were placed in the same group as Mexico, Colombia, Canada and Great Britain for this tournament.

The WBC will be held from March 9 to 23, 2023. Games will be held at Taichung Baseball Stadium in Taiwan, Tokyo Dome in Japan, Chase Field in the United States, and Rondipo Park in the United States.
