Baseball World Cup

What are your opinions on it?

My biggest concern is that it is taking a back door to MLB. The World Cup should be more important than the club play, otherwise it won't be a success. The main example I am thinking of is that the tournament is being planned in MLB spring training. The problems I see are that March is before people tend to pay attention to baseball and that a lot of players don't play good until midseason.

I think the only way for this to be a success would be for the MLB to drop 20 games from its schedule every four years and allow it to happen midseason.
