The World Baseball Classic is just around the corner. There will be some Toronto Blue Jays players participating in the tournament that will begin in March. You have the obvious players, such as Vladimir Guerrero Jr., but some minor leaguers could factor onto their respective rosters. Not just that, some of the Blue Jays' free agents and recently released players could find their way onto a national team. Most people reading this article will likely be cheering for Team Canada. They'll be in a pool with Puerto Rico, Panama, Cuba, and Colombia, with games taking place in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Beyond that, the team could go a bunch of different ways. I like (Cameron) Reid's skating, while Danford can shut down just about anyone. (Charlie) Elick can be paired up with anyone and bring toughness and a willingness to win every shift. Overall, there's still a lot of "wait and see" with the D-corps - and I don't think that's a bad thing, given the depth available to them.
