Soto V. Marmol: Potential battle of the century?

[Brian]

From that Piniella/Phillips/Kosuke article

 

Carlos Marmol on the possibility of facing Geovany Soto in the World Baseball Classic: "I'm going to strike him out. I'm going to try to. We're enemies out there. In here, we're good friends. There, it's different."

 

Is this epic battle of Good vs. Good the prophecy's told us about, can the universe handle such a confrontation?

[CubbieBum]

I find it interesting and will be looking forward to see who wins. The catcher who knows how the pitcher likes to pitch or the pitcher who knows how the catcher likes to hit?

SOTO v. MARMOL ... Dare you ask who wins; dare I say: baseball.

[Wilson A2000]

Three sliders on the outside corner should do in Soto.

[Sammy Sofa]

Worlds colliding.

 

Our universe is doomed.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Wholy Howry, you're telling me that there are folks who take the WBC seriously?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

geovany soto

 

(and again, to all the WBC haters, your loss)

[CubbieBum]

WBC isn't anything huge to me but I like it and with time I think will become a big deal. With baseball out of the Olympics this will become baseball's Olympics.

The upside down, backwards visor wearing turdablls dream matchup. He can use hip adjectives like "wicked" and whine at the same time.

 

"YES! What a wicked pitch by Marmol! JESUS, Soto! What are you swinging at?!!!"

 

"YES! I gotta text Justin-Tyler (also sometimes referred to as J-Tie when I'm feeling oh so hip-hop) Soto got all of it! CHRIST, Carlos, WTF was that?!!!!!"

What?

 

Did you just drop a Whopper on the keyboard?

[Post Count Padder]

I think Nostradamus might have foreseen this incident. He called it the apocalypse.

[erik316wttn]

The sole mission of every world government and the United Nations should be to prevent these two from ever facing off, otherwise the universe may collapse on itself.

[CubInOK]

The next time we will see a matchup like this will be on December 12, 2012.

[Clem Fandango]

The last time something similar to this was building up momentum over several months was back in the late 20's, and then the stock market plummeted and the economy went in the crapper..........

Marmol hits Soto in the face with a fastball. Soto charges the mound and slams him to the ground tearing up his shoulder. Both their careers end on the same day.

 

As long as that doesn't happen, I'm ok with the WBC.

It may become a big deal to the rest of the world but not here because players will always opt out to avoid getting hurt.

I would die if that happened.
