Anyway, the definition of an underdog is someone who beats the odds (i.e. better teams) and is expected to struggle; not make it. That defines the USA after the Miami rounds.

The only reason they put Colombia and Canada in that pool was so that USA and DR would make it out. USA probably doesn't make it (again) if PR was on there like last time.

They were underdogs

I'd randomize the hell outta the pools next time. Venezuela /DR/US/PR is just unfair to anyone, and if you wanna factor in how good Colombia looked, :damn:

even Mexico looked weak compared to the rest of the field and they're damn good themselves.

Not only was it their first time making it to the semis, but pretty much the only team they were expected to beat was VEN.

Weren't the favorites in ANY of their matchups. They beat 2017 favorites DR, former champs Japan and an undefeated PR team to win.

Yeah, that's an underdog breh

Pre-WBC odds according to BM:

World Baseball Classic Betting Odds - Sportsbook Live Lines for International Baseball

Odds to win 2017 World Baseball Classic

USA +170
Dominican Republic +250
Japan +400
South Korea +1500
Puerto Rico +1000
Venezuela +800
Cuba +1900
Netherlands +3500
Mexico +2700
Canada +6000
Chinese Taipei +5300
Italy +9600
Field - Any Other Country +4200


So basically they were the favorite both before the tournament as well as in the final two games. But please beg for "receipts" on the betting lines I posted on those 2 games I mentioned so I can bury you some more. :ohlawd:
