I love the whole idea of it, but I just don't know if it will pick up very well just because they have to have it in spring training, while players aren't at the top of their games, and the MLB season is so long its hard to watch any other baseball (olympics or college or whatnot).
Anyway, there are going to be some sweet teams. Quite a few Twins will be representing. Morneau (Canada), Balfour (Austrailia), Santana (Venezuela), Jacque Jones (Africa) I'd have to imagine that Rincon and Rivas both have a legit chance of making rosters too. I know we've got at least two more minor leaguers who played in the Olympics for random countries. Should be pretty cool.
