    I'd slow down....this is a short confusing blurb taking from a Taipei Baseball Fan Group site. There is nothing official about this announcement. It is still speculation, and really only speculating on what we thought all along, a November qualifier in Taiwan with those four countries. I don't think this means anything.

      I spoke with my New Zealand people and they have heard nothing. He's not surprised with the location or grouping but said he was told at the Winter Meetings it would September and was surprised to see the November dates. As I said be skeptical of the info in that article.

        Did you even check what the article says? It's because there's a possibility that Taiwan wants those playing the US in November. That round is set up for Taiwan to win.

        You should realize by now that English speaking people are the last people you'd expect to hear any news about international baseball from.

            There are still some things that need to be discussed between WBC and host Germany but here is an article by a local newspaper from Regensburg/Germany. The main quote is interesting

              I like Regensburg as a choice, they seemed to do very well with the last event they hosted! The weather is still good for baseball at that time?

                      Roughly less than 380 days for the next CLASSIC,and still no announcement,quite disappointing.

                        Good, I didn't care for the other format. BTW, the Dominican National Team may have a new General Manager. Stan Javier is rumored to be taking over the Cibao Eagles job; so the top replacement candidates are Omar Minaya and Moises Alou.

                          I find it very odd that they would announce the Asia Series for the very same weekend that these recent articles say the WBC qualifier will be in Tawain. I still say that article is not to be believed completely especially with other info I've heard that some participants were already told September

                            It's a moot point because none of those games will draw a lot of people in participating countries except maybe the WBC qualifier final in Taiwan.
