Team USA are taking on the San Francisco Giants in an exhibition game before starting their World Baseball Classic campaign in earnest against Mexico next week. Team USA's absolutely stacked lineup is already drawing rave reviews from baseball fans who hold high expectations for Mark deRosa's star-studded side.
Team USA's lineup against the Giants boasts a startling array of talent, featuring MVPs Mike Trout, Mookie Betts, and Paul Goldschmidt. Some have already dubbed them "the greatest lineup of all time".
"Lineup so stacked, Kevin Durant wants to be a part of it"
"Lineup so deep that Trea Turner is hitting 7th lmao"
Team USA has its work cut out in the World Baseball Classic
Some fans were quick to point out the Dominican Republic and Team Japan's lineups featuring stars like Shohei Ohtani as worthy contenders to win the World Baseball Classic with both teams bringing their best players.
If Team USA is to advance deep into the tournament, the side's less than stellar pitching cast will have to ably support the hitting talent it possesses.
