While the Jays take on the Reds in spring training, Team USA and Team Canada face off at the Rogers Centre. As we all know, Team Canada won the matchup 3 years ago, 8-6. Jake Peavy starts for the Yanks while Mike Johnson pitches for Team Canada. By the way, Team USA is actually the home team, even though the game is in T-Dot. Here are the starting lineups:

Funny, one would think I'd be rooting for team USA, but I'm not really feeling a lot of national pride in the game for some reason, and I actually like the players on Team Canada more, though I do like David Wright quite a bit. Anyway, if you're around, stop by and chat with us about the game!
