It is down to just a handful of teams, but once again the faith in the USA seems to be fading away.

It has never been more obvious that the US is no longer the country with the best players anymore. The United States may have been the birth place of baseball, it is called "America's Past Time", but they just can't hang with up and coming countries.

The next game for the Americans is against the defending champion Japanese team headed by Ichiro Suzuki.

In my honest opinion, the Americans have no chance. Yeah, USA has some great players, but teams like Japan and South Korea live for this tournament.

Take any team, but the Americans in this tournament and you will win some money.
