That is a competition between various national Teams to crown a world champion. But it looks like it's not quite ready to be implemented yet. What element of the World Classic looks not quite ready? Thanks, Steve |

If you have mostly Americans, your chances are low. Draft a few players from rare countries...your chances increase. Steve |

On the other hand, if they actually have to rely on the two mediocre players I'm contibuting to their NT, I'm afraid round 1 against Cuba will be it for them... | ||

Gambler Joined: 12/21/2014 Posts: 10 Inactive | Let me get this straight. So there are 16 teams competing. I have a Brazilian guy who has a purple star, but there is no Brazil team. Also why does he have a star for 2020? Isn't this the first year World Classic is taking place? |

The stars only indicate the player is on national team roster. But hopefully there will be some team rotation for the future World Classics, it's kinda boring to see the same teams participating everytime. Updated Monday, January 5 2015 @ 5:01:50 am PST |

National teams are selected every year (include last season before there was even a World Classic). Nations not in the Classic will still select national teams. Brazil only had twelve players on clubs, so their weren't one of the strongest sixteen teams. Steve Updated Monday, January 5 2015 @ 10:16:59 am PST |

JuanCarlos_BY Joined: 12/22/2014 Posts: 77 Inactive | One idea is to create selection "Rest of the World", involving players whose countries not participating in the Classic. How will the competition format? Knock out stage? I would have liked more than the first stage were in groups. In the real baseball Venezuela is stronger than Mexico or Puerto Rico , but in Broken Bat looks weaker than those countries. I think there has to be more Venezuelan players in BB . Anyway, the World Baseball Classic in Broken Bat will be fun. |

admin Joined: 01/27/2010 Posts: 4981 Administrator | Actually, one of the changes over the off-season was to adjust the distribution of prospects from the various countries. This actually included re-balancing both Mexico and Venezuela. It will take some years for the effect to percolate up to the national teams though. Steve |
