not sure if that's ever been done before, and the other starter played with them last year.........

They're missing out on Blade this year if he's eligible.

My god. The entire rotation. Just…insane.

He wouldn't play national team ball this year. In six weeks, Blade will have signed a $12 million contract and be pitching in a rookie ball league somewhere. He is age 21 ..time to start making the serious money.

This. Blade is about to be a professional player. He isn't messing around with USA Baseball.

That’s awesome news . I hope they all go and represent.

I hope they do not go. They need to rest and rebuild. Team USA was part of the problem for Blade so I'm hoping we use them in Omaha and then they take the rest of the summer off.

It could go that way for sure, but they will have to weigh the Honor of being invited and getting to travel abroad with the risk. I’m sure there will be a conversation when the time comes.

It’s great that they have Blade’s experience on hand as well.

I hope they see this as the once in a lifetime opportunity that it is and go represent their country.
